Goose Island: Root Beer

Tasty

I've been looking for Goose Island Root Beer for years and it has finally made it to New York! Reminds me of the root beer I used to drink in the 70's

Not what it was

I discovered Goose Island Root Beer eight or nine years ago and praised it to one and all as the best root beer ever...but very difficult to find. After several years, I found some more today...and it's changed. Very much for the worse.

I agree!

I instantly noticed the taste difference. And it's terrible. My favorite moment: I emailed them asking why-oh-why did they change the recipe? The woman who responded said they hadn't. When I emailed her the difference in ingredients on the label, she never wrote back. Nice. Way to ruin a brand.

GREAT TASTE!

Only bad thing about this Rootbeer. Costco stopped stocking it. Cant find it anywhere else. Go figure.

The Best Rootbeer Ever!

simply put this is the best tasting rootbeer i have ever had!

Not So Great

This root beer has a cough medicine taste, so if you like that, this is the one for you. I don't like that, so no good for me.

great root beer

I was pleasantly surprised. Not overly sweet, the cane sugar blended the flavor in real well. This is a very good root beer. Will definitely buy more.

Best Root Beer

This is the best root beer I have tasted in a long time. It is not too sweet and tastes just right. It reminds me of the root beers of my youth in Pennsylvania. I would recommend it to anyone.

Not Good

Mild and Smooth

Goose Island makes some pretty good beers, so it is nice to try a root beer from them. It is on the mild side and fairly sweet, and the flavor is definitely reminiscent of a drive up root beer stand. Very smooth and refreshing. It just begs to be served in a frosted mug.
