Virgil's Zero Sugar Root Beer
/I don’t really want to write this review because I’m afraid I won’t like the soda. There have been several sodas over the last 10 years that I didn’t think I’d like, but that never really bothered me until now. The soda in front of me is Virgil’s Zero Sugar Root Beer.
Read MorePrivate Selection - Creamy Ginger Root Beer
/Another day, another bottle of Private Selection soda from Kroger. The past few bottles have been honest in their flavor which is appreciated. Today’s offering is Creamy Ginger Root Beer. From the name alone I’m fairly excited to taste this one. I like creamy sodas, I like ginger sodas, I like root sodas, and I like beer sodas. Perhaps my breakdown is a little off, but you get the jist. Here’s hoping this soda’s “title” isn’t the only delectable portion.
Read MoreEmpire Root Beer
/Ever consumed liquid tree? I’ve only had one soda by Empire and it tasted like tree, a spruce tree to be exact. It wasn’t very good as you might expect liquid tree to be, but I had to respect it. Why would I pick up another bottle of Empire you might ask? Well even though I didn’t like their tree soda they did a really good job in making it. So if they’ll put that much love and care into spruce soda then surely they’ll make a root beer that’s easy to love… right?
Read MoreDog n Suds Root Beer
/What is “Drive-In Style”? This bottle of Dog n Suds Root Beer is labled as being “Drive-In Style”. One could assume that meant old fashioned I guess, it’s a little confusing.
Read MoreOlde Rhode Island Molasses
/And the winner for the most plain label I’ve ever seen goes to… Olde Rhode Island Molasses Root Beer. Honestly though, this label is the equivalent of an old dusty book found in the annals of a library.
Read MoreCaruso's Legacy Robusto Root Beer
/I have what could be the fanciest looking root beer label in front of me. It’s got a black and white picture of a couple, it’s got a fancy font that is similar to the “Cheers” television program, it has the words “Legacy” and “Robusto” in the title. “Robusto”... that’s Italian for robust in case you weren’t aware.
Read MoreChowning’s Tavern Root Beer
/What a refined looking root beer I have in front of me today. Chowning’s Tavern Root Beer’s label goes for the colonial look with it’s parchment style coloring. There’s even a brief story about it’s origins included which I have typed below:
Read MoreSo Duh! Rockin' Root Beer
/This is an odd soda in front of me, so we’re going to start with the blurb on the label right off the bat.
“Duh” means many things to many people; an airport code in Ohio, a punk rock band. To us, So Duh!, means - “Isn’t it painfully obvious this is a delicious craft soda made in small batches with quality ingredients and pure cane sugar.”
Read MoreSt. John Brewers Virgin Islands Root Beer
/This root beer bottle has a beach on the label. Growing on this beach is a palm tree. Inserted into this palm tree is a tap that has apparently been used to fill two barrels with root beer. That’s how it works, right?
Read MoreHosmer Mountain Sarsaparilla Root Beer
/You know what makes me excited? If you said “soda” then you took the easy way out. If you said “alternate sweeteners” then you’re in my mind right now. What the fine folks at Hosmer Mountain have done in their Root Beer is use brown sugar in the formula. That’s pretty dang exciting in my book. They also use HFCS, but just the fact that brown sugar is incorporated makes me excited to taste it.
