Columbia Soda Works presents an enigma. Despite my efforts to ascertain its historical background, the website yielded no discernible results. The bottle’s label asserts its establishment in 1996 within the historical gold-mining town of Columbia, California. The label further proclaims, “The flavor transports you to the bygone era when miners and settlers savored the opulent tastes of these early refreshments. A taste as opulent as the Mother Load.” It even boasts an additional claim, stating that Columbia Soda Works Sarsaparilla is “A VERY PRECIOUS LIQUID.” This constitutes the entirety of the information I have been able to gather.
This soda exhibits a distinct sarsaparilla flavor profile. The effervescence provided a pleasant tingling sensation in my mouth. The subtle notes of caramel and light wintergreen were quite noteworthy. However, the absence of a hint of vanilla prevented this soda from achieving a flawless score.
The head of a poured beverage is not robust and dissipates rapidly. Its characteristics can vary depending on the glass's temperature and the method of pouring.
This dark root beer possesses a distinctive flavor profile. The blend is not overly bitter, featuring a subtle wintergreen undertone.
This beverage was thoroughly enjoyed from the outset, leaving me eager for another. Notably, it does not contain HFCS (as indicated by the term “sugar”), which is a positive attribute. The flavor profile is well-balanced, achieved through a carefully calibrated carbonation balance. This beverage is an excellent choice for any occasion.
Indeed, I would readily choose this root beer. During my upcoming visit to the store next year, this will be my initial choice. As evidenced by the subsequent reviews, I am not alone in my positive assessment of this beverage.
