Manufacturer's Brand Overview: [Edit]
Abita brews its root beer with spring water, herbs, vanilla and yucca (which creates foam). Unlike most soft drink manufacturers, Abita sweetens its root beer with the pure Louisiana cane sugar. The resulting taste is reminiscent of soft drinks made in the 1940's and 1950's before bottlers turned to corn sugar and fructose. Like earlier root beers, Abita is also caffeine-free.

BevNET Review:
Abita Root Beer is a very nice micro-brew root brew from Louisiana. Using water from historical Abita Springs, LA, this product aims to provide a beverage that uses some of the finest quality water as its base. In addition, to using fine water, Abita uses pure cane sugar as the sweetener, so it has a very clean mouth feel to it. The resulting flavor is very good. It has a moderate amount of weight to it and a very slight licorice taste to it. We also like the nice 40's style label. A good, well rounded product.
