Cock 'n Bull Ginger Beer doesn't scream ginger until the aftertaste… then the burn sets in. This is a good thing. With real sugar and a heavy dose of ginger, this glass-bottled beverage is a winner!

There seems to be something that both Michelle Obama and Rush Limbaugh can agree upon: High fructose corn syrup is bad. Two If By Tea is sweetened with sugar and promoted by Limbaugh, however both its Original Sweet Tea and Raspberry Tea flavors are just average in taste.

Crave Original Chocolate Milk & Crave Strawberry Chocolate Milk pack awesome flavor in a shelf-stable, aluminum bottle package, brought to you by a Western New York dairy. Definitely more of a beverage-based treat, this well-branded set of products will delight your taste buds. Recommended!

Fentimans Curiosity Cola provides the feel of a drink from 100 years ago, both in bottle aesthetics and taste. It is sweet, but with a blend of flavors and an almost medicinal hint. With or without food, it is definitely worth trying, if only as a "curiosity." We like it!

Like him or hate him, #3 Qui-Gon Jinn first uttered the phrases that gave the Star Wars universe midi-chlorians. It's all part of BevReview's "Phantom Phridays", our tribute to the 1999 Star Wars: Episode 1: The Phantom Menace Pepsi Cans promotion. "Don't center on your anxieties, Obi-Wan. Keep your Pepsi can here and now, where it belongs."

We liked Main St. Cafe Protein Smoothies quite a bit, with special emphasis on the Peach flavor. Interesting products as they are shelf-stable, but potentially offer the opportunity for dairy/smoothie products to reach a wider audience than what we're currently seeing in the beverage marketplace.

The Pop Shoppe Pineapple Soda is a winner! Great bottle, good carbonation, and fairly good taste. The flavor really does taste like pineapple, however there is a slight syrupy aftertaste produced by the high fructose corn syrup. Overall, we recommend it for those who enjoy fruit sodas.
