Root Beer
Posted: Mon Jan 20, 2014 2:28 pm
Composed entirely of roots and beer, root beer is the drink of choice here in the haptic/Retro household. As a result, root beer shall henceforth be discussed and critiqued, mostly on a scale from 1= crap to 10= will buy again and drink without a gun to my head.
First up: Original Stewart's Fountain Classics Root Beer. Not the first root beer we've tasted but it's the one I'm drinking as I write.
It gets a 2 because it is drinkable but that's about as far as it goes. Pronounced caramel flavor for some reason, otherwise a standard grocery store root beer. I wish it had the slight wintergreen flavor that I've come to recognize is what I want in a root beer.
Who has a random, hard to find root beer that we should try? The best so far has one one we found at a store that also sells liquid stevia specially extracted without chemicals because, you know, "natural".
