yeah your right, however I don't think I'm going to brew my own because I'm not confident with my brewing skills and I'm lazy. |
Oh please! This is not brewing in any sense of the word.
1. Take the screw cap off a 2 liter plastic bottle of cream soda.
2. Add root beer concentrate.
3. Screw the cap back on.
4. Agitate slightly.
5. Refrigerate until cold.
6. Take off the cap.
7. Pour into a glass.
8. Drink it.

What would be the best "introductory root beer"? as in something that embodies the classic American root beer taste. (if that makes sense to anyone)...

A&W is the most popular root beer. Its flavor is predominantly that of vanilla and wintergreen. However, modern A&W does not embody a "classic" root beer taste because classic root beer was flavored with safrole
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safrole
which was banned in the USA from food around 1962 and was recently deemed a controlled substance because illegal drugs can be manufactured from it. Nothing else tastes like safrole.
