Not Your Father's Root Beer

I just discovered a great new alcoholic beverage, "Not Your Father's Root Beer". I'm not sure how long this has been around but my daughter turned me on to it. Tastes just like root beer, only 5.9% Etoh. Makes great root beer floats too! (That's some sun tea cooking to the right.)

 

Oops ................. I see that this has already been covered by a few folks in the "what adult beverage are you drinking tonight" thread. Oh well ............................

 

Might have to check this out
Sun tea, I got back on that kick a few weeks ago, GF's buys Milo's sweet tea - sweet is an understatement

 

I can drink it in a tall glass of ice after melting for a bit - honestly I think its brown stained water with cornsyrup

 

I guess I would sum it up like this .............. If you are looking for a root beer tasting "BEER" you might be disappointed with its sweetness and spices, etc. If you are looking for an "Alcoholic Soda Pop" by all means proceed ahead!

I've been making sun tea for many years. What could be simpler, I make a batch every 2-3 days in these one gallon containers. I like my tea strong so I brew during the day, frig it over night, and pull the bags out the next morning. I like my tea unsweetened, but I do like to mix my tea with some Raspberry sweet tea that my daughter buys. This batch of tea was "Passion fruit-Papaya".

By the way, as this is the firewood hoarders club, fired up the 026 after dinner and cut down that dwarf alberta spruce (almost 7 feet tall and dying) behind the beer bottle!

 

Just like drinking Birch Beer mixed with Beer.

 

I consider it a dessert beer, to sweet to drink few at time. one on the deck in the evening is good though.
