Green Bee Soda

Product Type:Carbonated Soft Drink: Regular; Container: 12 oz Glass
BevNET Review: As far as craft sodas go, Ginger Buzz has a unique and well executed formulation that is made with only five ingredients: carbonated water, honey, fresh ginger, coriander, and citric acid. In terms of flavor, honey is indeed the primary flavor, with the ginger giving it a hint of spice and the citric acid giving it an almost lemon-like finish. The coriander doesn’t really stand out, but there is a very subtle spice in the backdrop. Ginger Buzz is light and crisp, with bold flavor that doesn’t rely too heavily on sweetness. Visually, the product feels like something that was crafted in small batches, with a stock amber bottle and a simple paper label. The branding and label design could be simplified and more appealing and exciting than it currently stands. Utilizing more of the yellow honeycomb design that’s on the border might be one area for Green Bee to explore. As it stands right now, the look of the product isn’t up to the same quality as what’s inside the bottle. Overall, a very solid tasting soda. Reviewed on: 5/8/2012
