Pretty uncanny resemblance to root beer but I'll echo the other sentiments. I couldn't finish one bottle and it's very syrupy and sickly sweet.
I agree with hopper it's very syrupy and more like really flat root beer.
Yes! Tastes just like root beer. Great with ice cream. And comes in cans. Delicious !
The start IS exactly like root beer, rich, smooth and flavorful. The finish is cough syrup. Maybe a matter personal preference, but I could not finish it. Applaud the effort and would say try it for yourself if it sounds interesting.
