Root Beer Soda

"Artificially Flavored"

Distributed by Pay and Save, Inc., Littlefield, Texas 79339.

 

Review

        Rooty nose with a slight chemical smell.  Wan taste, almost watery, not a lot going on here.  Slight carbonation bubble burn.  Slight fruity taste is nice, tapes off to a vague wintergreen aftertaste.  A quite mediocre soda, but not bad for a supermarket brand.
