Natural Brew

A complex flavor of bourbon vanilla extract, anise, sarsaparilla, licorice root, birch oil, wintergreen oil, and other natural flavors. I have this strange feeling that Natural Brew is going to remind me of Virgil’s, especially after reading the small bit of text above that’s associated with the label.

Old Red Eye

I’ve got a bad feeling that Old Red Eye Root Beer is going to kick my teeth in. I’m not a huge fan of the bitter stuff, and I’ve got this inkling that’s what I’m in for. I don’t know it for sure, but I get the sense that this root beer isn’t going to be up my alley. Well, you know what they say, “take life by the horns,” so I guess I’d better get started with this gnarly looking brew. Estoy Torear Viejo Ojos Rojos Por Primera Vez Old Red Eye – the kind of name that strikes fear…
