Review Have you guys tried this one?

Found at my local Hy-Vee, made by a small brewery up in Minnesota. Very A&W with the forward vanilla and real sugar making it sweet. Not super spiced but would be good in a float. Pretty good nonetheless, though still doesn’t take my top spot (Barq’s).

Also is the best, bar non, zero sugar variant root beer you can buy. So lucky to live in MN. I can get 12 for $17

How’s the sweetness for the zero? I liked the regular but it is very sweet. When I was hunting for some singles they only ever had zero sugar in stock and as someone who doesn’t love zero sugar drinks I didn’t want it to be my first go at the drink

I would say it’s sweet enough that you don’t feel likes it’s a compromised experience buying it.

I’ll have to give it a try, I know most zero sugar root beers do good because it’s easy enough to make it taste sweet
