I always thought birch beer kind of tasted like root beer plus cream soda, so you should try that sometime I bet you’d like it
Dumb question, but does anyone know if you can brew root beer into actual beer with alcohol?
Root beer used to be commonly mildly alcoholic (.5-1%). We made traditional root beer in my AP bio class in high school, and weren’t allowed to drink it because of the alcohol
Damn, how they gonna have you make a consumable product in class and not even allow you to taste it?
The teacher was pretty cool, so I feel like she would have let us try it, but I’ve never met a science teacher who doesn’t have a viscerally negative reaction to the idea of eating something made in a lab. Honestly, the alcohol was probably an excuse
Fair enough, teacher basically covering her own ass. Still, it couldn’t be any more alcohol than a sip of cough syrup just to taste it…
That’s how they make Jagermeister
Huh, really? Cuz I like root beer every now and then, but I absolutely hate Jager!
I promise you they both taste the same if you’re not a yank! 😂
Also not a yank but I can definitely tell the difference IMO
Root beer tastes like medicine, Jaeger tastes like if Coca-Cola made an aniseed & mint version and you drank the syrup straight
I guess you could add root beer to fermenting grain, but the end result probably won’t taste like what you expect it too.
Though I respect your choice of root beer, I think Virgil’s got it beat, sorry homie.
I have to respect Virgil’s, it is definitely a high quality product made well, but it has too much spearmint for me.
Apparently folks from overseas hate root beer because it tastes like a common medication
a bit like how artifical cherry or grape flavor was ruined by Robitussin.
this one’s way too sweet for me, I’mma do spicy root beer all the way.
shout out to sparky’s best root beer I’ve ever had
Rootbeer… so vile so happy and cloy. It’s insidious.
You ever have a screamer with rootbear slush? It’s probably the best and using this to double up on the ice cream float flavour would be really good I bet
