Though I respect your choice of root beer, I think Virgil's got it beat, sorry homie.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

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

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?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Damn, how they gonna have you make a consumable product in class and not even allow you to taste it?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Huh, really? Cuz I like root beer every now and then, but I absolutely hate Jager!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I promise you they both taste the same if you're not a yank! 😂

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

I guess you could add root beer to fermenting grain, but the end result probably won’t taste like what you expect it too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Rootbeer... so vile so happy and cloy. It's insidious.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Apparently folks from overseas hate root beer because it tastes like a common medication

[–] captain_aggravated 3 points 1 day ago

a bit like how artifical cherry or grape flavor was ruined by Robitussin.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

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
