BevNET Review
Windy City Root Beer is your run-of-the-mill entry into the premium root beer category. Aside from the fact that it uses sugar as the sweetener, the only other obvious merit that this product has is that it's "Made in Chicago!". We've never considered Chicago to be the capitol of hand-crafted root beers, so we doubt that this will have any PR value -- even in Chicago. Windy City Root Beer is a good alternative to an IBC or Stewart's-grade root beer, but it's certainly not going to win any awards with its average flavor and glued-on paper label.
