Tommyknocker

Tommyknockers were mean little elves who harrassed workers in the gold mines, according to Colorado superstition. In 1859 they got into the Root Beer business and this brew was born! These elves do things a little differently, brewing with such exotica as pure maple syrup and Tahitian vanilla extract. Can these little half-pints measure up?

JOHN: A strong nose of maple syrup is immediately apparent, which also lands on the tastebuds. A tangy, slightly fruity flavor mixes with the maple, which is not altogether pleasing. Only a hint of the Tahitian vanilla extract, but a mother lode of maple syrup aftertaste. It might taste better on Pancakes. **

FRED: DOES NOT TASTE LIKE A ROOT BEER. TOO MUCH VANILLA AND MAPLE SUGAR TASTE. *
