this is a nice soda. a great scent, a very good flavor that is not overpowering, a fine amount of carbonation… the only flaw is that the flavor could be a little stronger. it has a little bit of a mint taste, a little strange for a sarsaparilla. not a bad thing though at all. i like the label, although a 24 oz bottle is a bit weird. whatever. i will have to try to get a keg of this, as i suspect it is even better that way.

I wonder if the taste of this differs from their glass bottled sarsaparilla?
Hmmm… This was pretty decent, much better than their root beer. It is one of the better sasparillas. I’d give it an 80, but I’ll need to taste it again just to make sure.
I personally prefer the taste of their Sarsparilla in the glass bottles, it is cleaner and seems stronger.
I finally found a bottle of this. The flavor was really sweet, to sweet for me, and a very mild mint flavor, so mild it was almost not their, and over all it was a weak flavor.
I like the root beer better, I give this a 65
