Ale-8-One: Ale-8-one

Ale-8-one

Product Type: Carbonated Soft Drink: Regular; Container: 12oz glass
BevNET Review: This quality ginger ale features a very light ginger flavor with a very subtle fruit-like finish. It's very refreshing and old-fashioned in style. First brewed in Kentucky in 1926, this beverage is easy to drink and has become quite favorite of BevNET.com staff. In addition, the green packaging and nice looking label makes the old fashioned appearance complete. Definitely try this beverage.

I was visiting my cousin who recently relocated to Winchester,KY and she had my try this stuff.Absolutely fantastic flavor, with a good finish and hints of citrus. I stocked up for the drive back to Missouri and am now forced to order it online to keep up supply. I feel like a drug addict. This is the most fantastic beverage I have ever tried.

I was born and raised in winchester KY and still live here to this day. A long-neck bottle of Ale-8 costs a dollar here or .70¢ with a bottle deposit. I usually buy mine on the corner market up the road! nothing beats a Ice cold Ale-8 on a hot day.

I live in the Chicago area, so during my too-infrequent visits to Kentucky, I stock up on Ale 8. It is the best soft drink in the world!

Nothin like downing an entire case of Ale 8 while out climbing at The Gorge. Ale 8 is the abrosia of the god on a hot summer day when sipped out of a chilled longneck bottle.

I am from Ashland, a few hours north east of Winchester. Ale 8 flies off the shelves here. It is some amazing soda although it is best closer to Winchester.

Wish It Was Sold In Michigan

Ale-8-one is absolutely delicious. For the longest time, I thought I hated all ginger ale. This is because I grew up in Michigan, where Vernors is really popular, and I happen to hate Vernors. You see, Vernors has a harsh, spicy taste. Ale-8-One, on the other hand, is smooth and a little fruity. In a world where most soft drinks are overly sweet, Ale-8-One manages to have a nearly perfect balance of sweetness. The taste is very subtle and refreshing. I first tried it when a friend's dad brought him a case of it from Kentucky. I wasn't expecting much, but I was quite pleasantly surprised. Overall, it's amazing.

I spend three to four months a year in Kentucky and the rest of the year suffering from Ale 8 withdrawal! This is great soda.

A Childhood Favorite
5 stars5 stars5 stars5 stars5 stars

I love Ale-8. I'm from Winchester and my fondest memories are eating Fairview's Chili dogs and drinking Ale-8s in the local park with my mom. The greatest thing ever is when you go to store and get some that are half frozen. They end up with this soft semi-frozen slush at the top of them that is simply exquisite! Ale-8's often get mistaken for alcohol outside of the state. I know a lot of people who have gone on visits out of state and requested Ale-8 only to be asked why they were drinking in the middle of the day lol.
