Review
Sweet, vanilla nose. Sweet lead, slight small bubble burn, mellows into unpleasant diet middle and end. Relatively full-bodied but not thick, smooth with some wintergreen burn in the finish. Then descends into the dreaded diet taste that we all know and love. Like its non-diet sibling, Gray's Root Beer, this one doesn't have a lot of root going on. Excellent burpability.
