Maine Root

One of my underground sources (Code Named K, the same one that secured me the Beaver) brought me this one. Not only does it have organic ingredients, but it's made with fair trade cane sugar, and that ain't not bad.

I liked the brown glass bottle, but the label was kind of uninspired. 

The colour was quite light, and the drink was quite finely carbonated. Not much head, unfortunately.

The flavour and aroma had a strong wintergreen presence, kind of like a breath mint. The clove oil made my guest M.E. have a numb tongue, but it didn't bother me.

Packaging: B
Head: D
Carbonation: A
Taste: A-
Final Grade: B+ (the plus is for being organic and fair trade)
