Frostop Premium Root Beer

Friday night, my wife and I got Thai take-out, rented a movie, and pulled out some frosty Frostop Root Beer:

Diet and Regular

We first tried the diet. And then we immediately cracked into the "regular." We wanted to do a side-by-side taste test. As it turns out, the regular was a bit better than the diet, but neither were that fantastic.


Brand: Frostop Premium Root Beer

Origin: Columbus, Ohio.

Purchase Place: Lunds Grocery Store, St. Paul (Highland Park), MN.

Sweetener: "Sugar and/or Corn Sweeteners."  (They don't know what's in it?  "AND/OR?")

Review: The very first initial taste is pretty good. But then it turns weak (almost watery), and there's a strange "chemically" aftertaste. It's pretty smooth with little bite and has a decent vanilla flavor, but my wife said it best when she said "it's just missing something." Agreed.

Score: (Regular) 5 out of 10
Score: (Diet) 4 out of 10
