A&W Root Beer Zero Sugar Soda

It taste like diet sodas have come a long way in the past fifteen years or so. I stopped drinking them when I got the runs from it and the runs really burnt on the way out. I mean, I thought I was bleeding and that the soda had burnt my intestines.

 

Now I don’t drink diet normally but I was at this party and they had some diet soda sitting around so I figured I could get a review in.

 

This A&W Root Beer Zero Sugar Soda was a good deal better than the crap I had back in the day. I mean, it almost tasted like normal A&W. I don’t know if it would give me the red runs like soda did back in the day, because I don’t want to drink enough of it to find out.

 

Still, this was okay.

Sprecher Root Beer

Sprecher Root Beer is a luxury item you can find at a discount store. Well, it's good soda. Sprecher makes beer and a company that makes bear tends to make good root beer. 

If you like root bear this a something you can have with your whiskey or dry if you need to and relax. With this heat it's a big thing to stay cool but you can't drink too much of this. 

I would have a nice cold water to go along with it if I were relaxing today, but then I'm a big fat man who should drink so much more water. 
 

Big K Soda Root Beer

 So someone is looking around for some root beer to make floats tonight and Big K Soda Root Beer available at Ralph's may be your only hope. Good news is that this is good enough to work even if you're not so hammered that you could be drinking mud and not notice. 

Knockoff root beer generally tastes fine the first glass and starts to show it's colors as you drink. I think I could go four glasses into this before noticing it's not name brand. 

Good job Big K.

Shasta Root Beer

 

Shasta Root Beer showed up at the discount store last year, because the lock in order meant that not as many people where getting drunk at parties. This root beer is kind of the stuff you drink after you've had a few and you just need something to thin out your vodka. 

To be honest the first one tastes fine, and the second one tastes less fine, and the more you drink Shasta Root Beer the more you have this feeling that something is wrong.  

Drink in moderation.

Peeps Marshmallow Root Beer Float

Peeps Marshmallow Root Beer Float are Root Beer enough but you can taste the float. All in all, these are rather good. I like them enough to choose them over normal Peeps but not enough to buy more.

Man Cave Craft Eats Bratwurst Root Beer

Man Cave Craft Eats Bratwurst Root Beer are really good sausages. I mean, they don't taste like root beer to me, but they taste great with lots of flavor. I baked these in the oven for an hour and a half with some rice and they came out really great. 

Win!

Bundaberg Root Beer

So if it comes from Australia are they legally required to put a kangaroo on it? I mean, lots of cool stuff in Australia and all we hear about is Kangaroos. 

In any case, Bundaberg Root Beer has a unique fruit flavor that kind of reminds me of guava. I can't really tell if I like it or not because I didn't get enough of these to get used to it. 

All in all, these are an expensive root beer that isn't better than A&W. Stick with the classic on this one unless you're just looking for a new flavor. 

Riley's Brewing Company Hand Crafted Root Beer

Riley's Brewing Company Hand Crafted Root Beer is a mix of flavors that you recognize. I mean, stuff like vanilla and Honey, real food things go into Riley's complex flavor and real taste.

This is very close to the best root beer I've ever had and the one I drank was out of date. Wish I could taste it fresh.   

Wienerschnitzel Mug Root Beer Float

If there is one thing in this world I love it's a good root beer float. I make one every year at new years with the best ice cream and root beer I can find.

Sadly this Wienerschnitzel Mug Root Beer Float is not made of the best ingredients, and it falls pale of the floats I make for myself. 

Now, I can't say this was bad, but it was just not all that good and for a treat that is one of my best loved I was let down. Give these a pass.

Sea Dog Root Beer

Sea Dog Root Beer is absolutely Root Beer, but I don't get the dog part or taste any sea. It's good root beer. It's a solid buy for good root beer. Then, it's been so long since I had a root beer that I almost forgot what they taste like.

Sea Dog is sweet and creamy with a complex aftertaste that will fit in with some good whisky. I had to drink it straight for the review, but my brother had it with whisky and he said it was good. 

BJ's Hand Crafted Root Beer

This was really good root beer. Not totally killer but really good.

Frostie Vanilla Root Beer

Frostie Vanilla Root Beer is the best Frostie Product I've had so far and it better be because it's there signature product. You can tell that it's not just normal Root Beer and it has the complexity of natural flavors that one should expect from a bottled root beer. Thumbs up but it has five more Calories than a normal soda so drink in moderation. Well, drink all soda in moderation unless you want to be fat like me.
