The beverage is marketed with a charming bottle label that refers to the root beer as “The Better Half.” I attempted to gather information about the brew, but the bottle directs users to www.momsrootbeer.com, which unfortunately results in a “404 (page not found) Error.” Additionally, the bottle mentions that the beverage is distributed by Core Beverage, located in Minneapolis, MN. However, Core Beverage has no website or other available information. Consequently, I lack substantial background knowledge about this beverage, which is unfortunate, as I am interested in understanding its origins and evolution.
The aroma is medicinal, reminiscent of a combination of mint and subtle vanilla. The initial drink was noticeably diluted, although the flavor intensified with the subsequent sip. Regrettably, this beverage does not meet my expectations. Both the aroma and flavor are average at best.
The head of the beverage was almost non-existent. Some individuals prefer a minimal or absent head to the beverage. I favor a medium head with a larger foam bubble. This could have been improved.
Although the initial sip lacked significant effervescence, it was only a small portion. However, when consuming a larger quantity, the carbonation provides a subtle sensation, while the flavor profile contributes minimally to this aspect.
Despite scoring this beverage higher than it objectively deserves, as it exceeded the 3.5 rating in the initial three categories, I was unable to raise its score further. This is because the post-consumption impression was merely average, at best.
Although this beverage is not particularly exceptional, and I would not decline an offer to try it, I would not actively seek it out. This is unfortunate, as the play on words in the name is the beverage's most intriguing aspect.
