Tonight's bottle is Virgil's Root Beer, made by Reed's, Inc. Discovered this bottle at the Wegman's grocery store in Columbia, MD near the to-go section refrigerated drinks for $1.49. Not bad for a boutique bottle when you consider the average consumer soda bottle (albeit 20 oz.) is running about the same price. The flavor is creamier than most, with strong vanilla and nutmeg flavors; so much so that I almost mistook it for cream soda. There are a few notes of anise in the mix and a pleasant level of carbonation. Might be too sweet for some people, but I found it decent enough when paired with a savory hamburger. Virgil's Root Beer
