I’m simply not a fan of this, it technically has the flavor you want I guess, but it tastes so bland. Its bubbliness is too low and has a pretty vapid flavor. If you threw this in a suicide from any standard drink fountain it would get drowned out easily, as a big ginger ale fan i still will drink this if offered but I will judge those who this is their first choice.

A little flat

Needs more bubules

Very good

Needs a little more root

Had this soda at del taco . Not a good soda and my number 5 combo steak and avacado burrito was horrible. I mean it wasn’t inedible because I ate the whole thing but the steak tasted like salty beef jerky and there was way too many beans in it. The fries were whatever but lets be real fries and burritos? That’s wack; normally I really like del taco but everytime I think of the taste of this burrito i kinda get shivers.

Girlfriend bought one of these trying to buy the ginger beer and accidentally got the ginger ale. Glad she did, this is really different from a lot of the ginger ales I’ve had before now. Doesn’t really have too much of a bite but replaces it with a little bit of the funk that you get from ginger beer. In my opinion i like that bite so that is the result of the lower score for me but if that’s something that turns you off from other craft ginger ales then this is the one for you

Got this one from my local Kroger, as a ginger ale super fan walking into a grocery store is usually a time for you to look around disappointed at crappy selection and then run out with a frown and a tear down your cheek. When I saw a new option posted right next to the other sodas my mood, like a phoenix from the ashes, rose as I bought a 12 pack for me and my friends for a football game. To my surprise this soda delivered. While my favorite ginger ale personally would have a lot of spice, Vernor’s pulls through with just enough kick to appeal to the us ginger fiends while still having enough grocery aisle wide appeal to not be too weird for a less extreme pallet. A great addition to any fridge. A true every man’s soda

When you pull up to the local dad’s dealer after a long days work, and see the promise of a good ole creamy orange extravaganza you pull out your wallet and say give me 20! While the promise gives you high expectations what you get isn’t bad but just a pretty run of the mill soda for what it is, still good because of good sweetness levels, but wish it was fizzier and lacks a certain je ne sais quoi

AlexMcB

I've been waiting for this Christmas bevo to roll through my local supermarket for YEARS. drank a whole pack but definitely a Christmas novelty vibe.

Sonny

Finally, a ginger beer so gingery that my toddler won’t even drink it, leaving it all for me. Worth a stop when you’re in Seattle. They’ll make an alcoholic beverage with it, if that’s your thing, and they’ve got a variety of flavors to complicate things, but this original was tasty on its own and worth a stop when in Seattle.

Sonny

Another perfectly fine root beer. Nothing to write home about, honestly. And maybe I’m underwhelmed only because I tried this one after their delicious cream soda. Cute can!

Sonny

A standard root beer out of Victoria, B.C. Maybe local pinball and pizza emporium Pinhalla has their kegs/fountains/whatever a little off, but it seemed a tad watery. Maybe that’s a good thing for people who like a little less bite in their root beer.

Sonny

From New Creation Soda Works, this nutty cream soda is a real treat. Cane sugar, vanilla, and pecan flavor are balanced nicely. And there’s a cute squirrel on the can!

Emma

Very flavorful. Tastes just like a maraschino cherry!

AlexMcB

Delicious! Not too sweet, shame it's 30cals, as id drink this all day long.

TheSodaGuy

I was actually kind of excited for a split-second. This starts off like a decent root beer, but finishes with an aftertaste reminiscent of...rancid butter?

TheSodaGuy

The added caramel is a nice touch.

AlexMcB

I don't like root beer, but this is nice. !!

Sonny

Ever wish your flavored soda water just had a little more flavor? Like it should be infused with a blast of fruity instead of a mere suggestion of flavor. Behold: Your monkey’s paw.

AlexMcB

Tastes like diet caffeine free DP cut with seltzer.

TheSodaGuy

This doc exclusively prescribes cough medicine.

AlexMcB

First taste is a true cherry limeade! Aftertaste ruins it all.

TheSodaGuy

It says it is "naturally flavored." So, I'm guessing it's the Erythritol and Stevia that give this a fairly synthetic flavor.

TheSodaGuy

Real sugar tastes surprisingly similar to imaginary sugar.

TheSodaGuy

Still the king of cream sodas.

TheSodaGuy

The vanilla is fairly natural. Overall, pretty good.

TheSodaGuy

Good and frothy. Semi-sweet with an ideal level of spice.

TheSodaGuy

Great cream soda. Nothing fancy, but quite nice.

TheSodaGuy

Really nice level of sweetness with a peppery finish. No bad aftertaste!

Sonny

They’re not kidding about the pepper or the “elixir.” Tastes like something your great grandmother would make for your sore throat. It’s delicious.

Excellent cola with great carbination

A childhood favorite from Canada Dry. Very refreshing red fruit punch with a high level of carbonation.

Excellent name of the pub ( The Cuckoo) and great glass.

Not a bargain but a right psrty glass.

£1 a pint.Bargain.

From the Dublin Castle,Camden Towm where Madness played their first gig.

Worth the point for the excellent glass

A lime coloured drink in a sea of red.Fresca after a Chicken Madras.

Very welcome in the heat of an english autumn.Served in a pint glass (8 cups US in the new cup measuring system).

Too much lime, not enough soda! Ratios were off.

Cheap and cheerful.How I like it!

TheSodaGuy

A new challenger has entered the cola wars.

Sonny

My preferred source of caffeine, Panera’s Fuji Apple Cranberry Charged Lemonade is a great calorie-laden, decadent jolt for the coffee-adverse. As a Sip Club ™️ member, these are free. Subscription well-spent for me.

Sonny

Is this soda? Is sweetness a requirement? If so, delete this from the database. But Bubly hits my soda cravings without pumping me full of sugar (or, probably worse, sugar substitutes). Just good ol bubbles and “lime.”

TheSodaGuy

Sprecher never disappoints. I would go so far as to say this is the best grape soda of all time.

TheSodaGuy

Maybe it's because I don't play League of Legends, but the "taste of +XP" is eerily similar to industrial cleaning products.

AlexMcB

New! I think I liked it?

AlexMcB

Had a Starry at West Coast Taco up by BNA. Mixed it with unsweet tea — delish 🫖🧋🍋

TheSodaGuy

A more-peppery-than-usual cola with a decent balance of spice and flavor.

TheSodaGuy

Surprisingly refreshing. Has the bite of a cola with a clean finish.

TheSodaGuy

Oof

TheSodaGuy

Just as good as, if not better than, a Sonic Cherry Limeade.

TheSodaGuy

"Vanilla" can often taste synthetic in colas. This is a welcome exception.

Sonny

All hail Buc-ee’s

TheSodaGuy

Cherry Coke beats regular Coke; the canned variety is no exception.

TheSodaGuy

Taco Bell fountains are surprisingly consistent.

Sonny

GOAT

AlexMcB

Overall bobbins. Drank warm at a pizza hut. Would probably be better cold!

Sonny

Zero calorie magic

Not bad by any means but Peña isn’t their best flavor.

TheSodaGuy

The second best Sprecher, just behind the cream soda.

TheSodaGuy

Chick-fil-A calibration can't be beat.

TheSodaGuy

Taco Bell calibration is the best.

TheSodaGuy

Mexican bottle with real sugar?! Yes, please!

TheSodaGuy

Pretty good. Woold be better with a bit lesser bite.

TheSodaGuy

Sweet, sweet, Sprecher. You can do no wrong. This cream soda is full of flavor with sweetness to match. This has taken the top spot for cream sodas.

TheSodaGuy

Maybe I'm just exhausted or maybe Filbert's makes a pretty tasty root beer. Thanks for something I can enjoy that's not deep dish, Chicago.

TheSodaGuy

The California state drink might be wine, but they do beer quite well. This above-average root variety is no exception. River City has a decent amount of bite and is fairly creamy. Overall, I would like a bit more flavor.

TheSodaGuy

As a child, my distrust of adults started when doctors told me how good certain medicines would taste. This Americana Honey Cream takes me right back there. This tastes like it could cure what ales you, but why bother flavoring it?

TheSodaGuy

Land of 10,000 lakes and pretty decent root beer. Spring Grove Root Beer is a pretty good offering in terms of flavor. It could certainly be a bit more smooth and I feel like there's just no aftertaste, pleasant or not. The #minnesoda hashtag is obligatory.

TheSodaGuy

Happy Father's Day to all the dads that, like Stewart's (excluding their diet offering), never let us down. This Cherries 'n Cream is a pretty solid cherry soda. It's full of flavor, is quite sweet, and tastes natural.

TheSodaGuy

Boylan makes a pretty solid cream soda. Fair amount of vanilla flavor, not too synthetic, and good caramel finish. I could definitely put this in regular rotation. Creme-de-la-cream.

TheSodaGuy

Fentimans is now 0 for 2. This has a great cherry flavor that is fairly organic (botanical?), but the cola base is just too spicy. Like the foolish man who built his house upon the sand, this one needs a better foundation.

TheSodaGuy

Not bad, Sioux City. This birch beer is way better than their sarsaparilla offering. It's rooty without being too earthy. Good sweetness to balance it out.

TheSodaGuy

This Butterscotch Beer is approved by the Ministry of Magical Foods & Drinks. It's also approved by the Single Guy of Soda. It tastes like a wizard melted down a butterscotch and carbonated it.

TheSodaGuy

While in Texas, I decided to try the 1891 Red Cola from TX's own Dublin Bottling Works. The cola flavor is nice, crisp, and refreshing. The "red" portion leaves a little bit to be desired. It's a bit too sharp, but, at least, doesn't taste synthetic.

TheSodaGuy

Dang, that's good "Dang! That's Good Butterscotch Root Beer." I'm always suspect of a brand that hypes itself. Can you imagine if my handle was thegreatestsodaguyofalltime? Still, this lives up to the name. The root beer flavor is still present under a very bold butterscotch taste. Even though it's a lot, each flavor really finds a place for itself.

TheSodaGuy

Americana isn't quite the Route 66 of root beers. For such a great name, I'd have hoped for better. The flavor is nearly there, but lacks the sweet and smooth caramel flavor for a perfect root beer.

TheSodaGuy

This may be a "good one" for Sam Elliot, but it's an "ok one" for me. Sioux City makes a decent attempt here because it has the right amount of bite and carbonation, but the flavor just isn't balanced.

TheSodaGuy

Virgil's Cream Soda has a taste as classic as the name "Virgil." Strong vanilla flavor and creaminess make this a solid choice for any soda fan. #sodasunday #virgilscreamsoda #creamsoda #soda #sodapop #craftsoda #thesodaguy

TheSodaGuy

I know a lot of these spring breakers are drinking actual cough syrup, but I'd prefer that flavor not show up in my soda. Big Red has some very synthetic tastes floating around in it.

TheSodaGuy

I went full Savage Garden on this Cherry Cola by Sprecher. The cola flavor is bold, but not too spicy. The cherry tastes quite natural and is well-rounded. So, it might be a change of pace if you are used to more artificial/medicinal cherry flavors. Thanks for the recommendation, @lickalator !

TheSodaGuy

Fentimans Curiosity Cola is a pretty solid cola recipe, but it is a tad spicy. If they knocked the ginger down a bit, this would be a go-to cola.

TheSodaGuy

Frostie Vanilla Root Beer is like an 80/20 root beer / cream soda. It has a very bold vanilla flavor while maintaining that tangy root beer aftertaste.

TheSodaGuy

Frostie Cherry Limeade tastes almost exactly like Sonic's Cherry Limeade. Cherry is natural instead of medicinal (sigh of relief). Lighter carbonation makes for a nice balance with this crisp flavor.

TheSodaGuy

Brownie Caramel Cream Root Beer has to be the most buttery root beer I have ever had. The caramel flavor is very nice and creates a taste reminiscent of butterscotch. It's not a typical root beer, but it is a bold one that I enjoy. #sodasunday #brownierootbeer #rootbeer #soda #sodapop #thesodaguy

TheSodaGuy

Though the first letter in IBC stands for "Independent," this one is made by a soda behemoth. Dr Pepper Snapple's root beer is a classic. While I tend to enjoy a creamier flavor, this recipe (cane sugar) has a robust taste and just the right amount of bite. #ibc #ibcrootbeer #rootbeer #soda #sodapop #thesodaguy

TheSodaGuy

Soda Sunday! I absolutely love Hank's Root Beer. It has the standard caramel and vanilla flavors found in most decent brands, but it is just so creamy. This one goes down so smoothly that I was in need of a second one within minutes. #sodasunday #hanksrootbeer #rootbeer #soda #sodapop #thesodaguy

TheSodaGuy

Today's soda is a gift from @sonnyharding. Macfuddy Pepper Elixir is a bold soda that is aptly named. With a great cola flavor and notes of cherry, the only thing preventing this from being a great session soda is a very peppery finish. If Dr Pepper lost his medical license, he'd be making these in the alley. #macfuddy #pepperelixir #soda #sodapop #thesodaguy

TheSodaGuy

Can't, uh, beat, uh, Abita. Despite a slightly strange aftertaste, I enjoyed this creamy root beer. It won't be a staple, but it will do. #abita #rootbeer #soda #sodapop #thesodaguy

TheSodaGuy

I was hopeful about Dad's Cream Soda because I am a fan of my actual dad. It, however, failed to support me in my time of need. The flavor is too medicinal to taste much of anything else. #dads #creamsoda #soda #sodapop #thesodaguy

TheSodaGuy

Today, for Soda Sunday, we have O-Zell Root Beer Float. Good caramel flavor, but could certainly be stronger. I'd drink it again, but would love a boost in the vanilla department.

TheSodaGuy

Starting this out with one of my favourites. Frostie makes a great root beer with a classic taste. Great caramel flavor, perfect sweetness, and never ventures into medicinal territory.

Bartman

Sparkling water counts as soda, right?

Bartman

Hank's is the greatest root beer of all time. FIGHT ME
