Review
A rooty nose, nice big bubbles! A complex beer, with "grown-up taste," according to Mark. Mediciny, with nice high notes, a mellow, fruity taste. Smooth and fruity after-taste, light and sharp "like Beeman's Gum," says Mark. Yucca gives it a nice head. Nice bottle, too -- slender with painted on label. One of our top-ranked root beers.
