Virgil's Zero Root Beer

That tag line for this root beer is "you'll swear it's made in heaven."  Unfortunatley, heaven doesn't make root beer like they used to.  To be frank, it barely had a root beer taste at all.  It was clouded (probably a result of being made in heaven) with a huge diet taste of stevia rebaudiana leaf extract and that dang GMO-free caramel color.  Truth be told, I'm not on the up and up on the GMO, and this root beer is not really worth the couple of extra minutes to research it.

I do love the fact that it has zero calories and it's using a sweetner that doesn't cause years of soft-drink induced cancer.  I actually like diet soda a bit too much and it would be nice to find a tasty alternative.  Virgil's Zero Root Beer is not that alternative . . .  although it is a really nice alternative for muddy water.

One other thing that I absolutely love about this root beer can be found right on their web-site.  It says, and I quote, "no sugar alcohols that upset your intestines."  Awesome . . . simply awesome.

Although I've never been a huge Virgil's fan to begin with, I think they have a much "higher standard" to live up to - this brew is a big disappointment.

I give this root beer a   F
