A.J. Stephan's Sarsaparilla

Sarsaparilla is the afficianado's root beer. And since we're root beer afficianados, we'll sample any sarsaparilla we can find. Today we're going after a Boston Brew: A.J. Stephan's.

John: This stuff surpised us both--when we poured it out, it had a purple tinge to it! Kind of syrupy in texture, I noticed a grape-like flavor right off the bat, giving way to sassafras root and oily fennel taste. The pure cane sugar sticks to your teeth afterwards. Yummy. ***

Fred: DEFINITELY FROM ROOT BEER FAMILY BUT SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT. STICKY AND GUMMY BUT MILD AND SWEET. SYRUPY AFTERTASTE. ***
