If you want to know why, it was DERMS, DERMS of course it was DERMS. We actually flew into Albany and then drove to Rutland. I searched feverishly along the way to find some brewery making some maple syrup root beer to no avail. The second night there, I went to a grocery store to buy some snacks and found this local store brand. Hannaford is a grocery store chain up in those parts which I had never encountered before. They\u2019re headquartered in Massachusetts so I think they\u2019re a New England thing. They make a root beer using natural extracts and spices in small batches, if their marketing is to be believed. They also don\u2019t use any preservatives. They also offer a double money back gaurantee so if I hate this I can make money. I do like the sound of that. More brands should pay me if I\u2019m dissatisfied with their brews. <\/p>\n<p>The Body is sweet and a little creamy. It\u2019s also a bit weak. There\u2019s a nice spicy Bite, with clove featuring prominently. The Head is decent. It\u2019s medium tall and fizzes down slowly so there\u2019s always some foam. The Aftertaste is slightly spicy clove with the smallest hint of wintergreen. <\/p>\n<p>This is decidedly mid. I mean, that\u2019s to be expected from a store brand. I\u2019ll give that it isn\u2019t generic, but it\u2019s still mid. Better mid than none I say, when I comes to gourmet root beer, however. And I think as Drinkable, I don\u2019t need my money back, so there\u2019s that.
