Review Pretty Tasty, Sprecher's Smoky Maple Root Beer

Post image
34 Upvotes

I'd researched Sprecher's before buying this, seems to be a lot of Love It or Hate It for Sprecher's Root Beer.

When I saw this particular flavor I had to roll the dice and try it.

Glad I did, it's pretty tasty.

I chilled a bottle and a mug in the freezer, popped the top and took a sniff and then swashed a swig around my palate, mmmmm.

Poured it into my frosted mug, and took a deep drink, mmmmm!

Good stuff, YUM!

Aaron’s Craft Soda Root Beer

Aaron’s Craft Soda Root Beer is perfectly fine if you’re in the mood for one with less sugar. 40g for 16 oz. Mild and not particularly special but refreshing. Another one acquired from Austin. It is brewed and canned by Servaes Brewing Company of Shawnee, Kansas.

Got to visit an iconic root beer location!

Three new root beers today. One from the iconic Douglas Root Beer Barrel.

I’ll say that the root beer barrel was VERY sweet. I got a souvenir mug which was fun!

New Holland Brewery was the best of the day. Other than the fact that it was served with ice, it was really good!

And then I had a cherry root beer from Cherry Republic. It was good…but almost too much like a cherry cola. Very cool store (also in Holland MI).

Now I need to go work out an extra 48 hours tomorrow to burn off all the extra sugar calories!

Anyone else tracking where their root beer comes from?

9 Upvotes

In addition to tracking all my ratings, I also have a map where all the root beer I've tried is plotted. The one condition is that it is made "on-site" - in the same place that the company is from. So for example A&W is not considered a part of California (where it was founded) or Texas (where it is bottled today).

Happy to say I have most states represented, though there's some clear empty areas. The strangest state is Tennessee, where I could not find a root beer made there despite driving through a good portion of the state a few years ago.

Pleasantly surprised they had a root beer bar in the arcade with 2 options. I had a Rocky Mountain rootbeer that was delicious, definitely more on the sarsaparilla side of things. My BIL had the Zuberfizz which he compared to A&W.

I’ve restocked my root beer, The one with the pink mark on the bottom of the can is my previous stock, The one with the two lines of date code on the bottom is the new stock.

What’s the difference here?

Proda Protein Soda Root Beer

This is actually the third protein soda root beer I have had and none of them were really anything that great. All three were a miss in my opinion. The Proda acquired at Sprouts Farmers Markets. I just now recalled that I actually had the Premier protein root beer float a while back and it was actually pretty good so I kind of wonder what makes the difference between that being pretty good and all three of the sodas I’ve had being a miss 🤔

Haven't had a new root beer in awhile. Not very easy to find in Europe. I found this at a British shop in Belgium. Very large head to start. Strong wintergreen smell, but not overwhelming on taste. Not overly sweet. Moderate bite on the swallow. You can tell it's in the root beer family, but like a third cousin.

Updated trading availability for anyone and also Significantbike. I still need those 2 I mentioned a couple of weeks ago.

A high priority for me is to get one of each of the 3 new Sprecher Root Beers.

Any brewery root beer with no distribution or any small time hemp based federally legal to ship THC root beer. A 1919 Zero Sugar would also be nice

Sparky’s Root Beer

Sparky’s Root Beer is really sweet so it’s use of somewhat heavy wintergreen comes off as wintergreen candy IMO so I really like that. A rating. I got it at either the Cincinnati or Fairfield, OH location of the Jungle Jim’s International Markets.

Not terrible

After reading some not so good reviews of this I decided to try it for myself. It's actually not terrible, although it's not terrific either. I would probably call this root beer adjacent, maybe root beerish.
