Margo's Bark

With all the T.V. shows about dogs and cute animals these days, it was only a matter of time before the root beer world got sucked into the mix.  With the purchase of Margo's Bark root beer, a portion of the proceeds go to help shelter dogs, so you can feel socially responsible while enjoying your brew.  But does it taste good enough to help these dogs find forever homes, or will they languish in the clink while their root beer goes to the dogs?

John:  Good scent, rich and spicy.  On the tongue is vanilla, cinnamon, and hint of clove.  This is a root beer with spice.  Unfortunately any complexity this root beer might otherwise have had is lost under a wash of too-sugary sweetness. The syrupy aftertaste lingers and is unpleasant.  Not awful, but I wouldn't drink it a second time.  ** Sorry, Rover.

FRED: A GOOD ROOT BEER BUT A BIT TOO SWEET AND SPICY.  **

FrosTop

What better way to ring in the holidays than with a delicious dram of FrosTop root beer!  Since 1926 these toppers have been brewing their delicious beverage.  But can they top our list?

John:  Wow, this is a strong brew.  Very strong anise.  Very strong nutmeg--moreso than other root beers.  And VERY strong clove flavor to add a little spice.  This is a bold, sweet, spicy beer!  There is nothing shy about this root beer, so I'm not shy about decorating it with our very acclaimed **** four star ranking.  Try it.

FRED:  VERY GOOD ROOT BEER. TOO STRONG FOR MY TASTE. ***
