The third time available in 420 Years? Really? I was unsure what to expect. I initially prepared the hyperlinks at the bottom and observed the scores scattered throughout. Does it suggest a love-hate relationship with root beer?
The presentation is a brown glass bottle adorned with a whimsical cartoon pirate and two swords on the dark label. The cap reads, “Once you’ve Jacked Black, you’ll never go back. Better dead red and just plain dead.” The overall presentation is somewhat eccentric.
Jack Black’s Dead Red Root Beer is caffeinated. The ingredients emulate an energy drink, incorporating Brazilian guarana, herbs, extracts, and, ultimately, cane sugar.
After a thorough 15-minute search online, I was unable to find any nutritional information on the bottle or its website. The product’s packaging indicated that I should contact the provided 1-800 number for nutritional guidance. However, when I attempted to reach this number, I encountered an unanswered line.
Upon opening, the anise, horehound, and vanilla flavors are immediately discernible. The beverage exudes a pleasant and inviting aroma. The blend possesses a subtle medicinal undertone. The initial sip reveals a harmonious blend of sweet and creamy vanilla, complemented by traditional root beer flavors. This combination aligns with my personal preferences. As the second drink is consumed, the intense guarana and other spices become more pronounced. The longer the beverage is savored, the more pronounced the medicinal flavor becomes.
The head was frothy but diminutive. It took significantly more than a minute to completely dissipate.
The carbonation level is lower than anticipated. A well-balanced blend of spices makes this a distinctive and enjoyable beverage.
I comprehend the mixed reviews that this beverage has received. It is a distinctive concoction that I found enjoyable. However, if you prefer a vanilla cream flavor, this may not be the right choice.
This beverage is not suitable for consumption with meals. Its unique nature makes it more appropriate as a social drink. In that context, I rate it highly. Consequently, it has a higher score compared to other beverages. Specifically, it ties with four other beverages that also scored 9 (out of 41 tested).
