Sonora Brewing Company Root Beer

i change my mind each time i take a swig of this brew. i like it, then i don’t. the honey is subtle, perhaps a bit too much so, if you are going to put it in, Dr Tima’s and Thomas Kemper do it better. but i do enjoy this drink. as i approach the bottom of the bottle, i like it even more. maybe the vanilla and honey are at the bottom or maybe it is just kicking my taste buds into gear.

    They must have changed the recipe along with the name in the past ten years, because the honey is overpowering in the bottle I drank… cola’ish and nasty, blech.

  3. Matthew- They did indeed change the name, when i reviewed it there was no ‘N’. now there is. but i left it as it was. perhaps i will get another bottle and see if it tastes drastically different now too.

    Found a bottle of this at Pop’s, which has unfortunately closed. LOVED it. Now I need to find another store that carries this.

    I found this at AJ’s, which is a Phoenix and surrounding areas fancy-pants store. I find it funny that the only thing on the label that changed was adding an n to the name. You’ll probably not change your mind about the taste, because my impression was almost the same as yours. I find it a little too sweet, and then I taste something else the next time. All while drinking the one big bottle. It’s good, but a little too much like the stuff you find everywhere in cans.

    I love this one. It’s especially good in a float. Local restaurant Stockyards has it on tap; very delicious that way.
