We started going to The Root Beer store where you can get some pretty off brand root beer. I decided to blog about the various kinds so we could have a log of what we tried and what we like, hopefully this keeps us from rebuying things we have already tried (and not necessarily enjoyed). We both love root beer, hopefully we can make it a once a month thing (or more) to go get a few new bottles to try.

Trader Joe's Vintage
Lots of flavors in this one (birch, anise, wintergreen, ect), Richard and I both really enjoyed it. We are thinking maybe next time we go to Trader Joe's we should check if they have it and the price comparison and maybe get a 6 pack to enjoy.

Zuberfizz
This one was creamy as advertised, and pretty smooth as well. I quite enjoyed it. It could have had a little stronger root beer taste but otherwise I really liked it.

Bundaberg
Bundaberg is by far the most expensive and strangest root beer we have tried. It is from Australia, maybe they make root beer a little different. It didn't really taste like root beer to me. SO many different little flavors to it, Molasses, Sarsaparilla, Wintergreen, just to name a few. Lots of flavors, just not one that stands out as all that much like root beer, and the ones that do stand out, I really didn't enjoy all that much.

Johnnie Ryan Delicious Root Beer
This was pretty good, not amazing but good. I enjoyed it enough I would get it again. It was smooth and tasted strongly of root beer, not something I can say for quite a few of the ones we have tried.

Sparky's
Sparky's was one of those ones that we tried before and I didn't post about it very quickly so I really didn't know what I thought. I didn't muck like it, while it doesn't say it has licorice (at least I don't recall it saying that), it has a similar flavor to some of the ones that do have it which I don't enjoy. That being said Richard enjoyed it a little more then me.

Filbert's Old Time Quality Draft Root Beer
Another so so root beer, it seems the ones that really stand out as great are few and far between. But when we try them we are happy to have found another one we enjoy. This certainly isn't on my list of ones to try again.

Thomas Kemper
When it comes to buying a root beer at a regular store, this is probably my favorite that you can get. It has a nice root beer flavor and is fairly tasty for something you can get just about anywhere.

Buckin Rootbeer
This was not my favorite root beer. I wouldn't say it was bad, but it wasn't all that great either. It has quillaia extract in it which I am guessing is the something that gives it a flavor I'm not much a fan of.
