Dead World Zombie (#64 - Rated 6 out of 12)

This brew is from the Dead World Zombie Soda Company.  Dead World is the award-winning, long-running cult hit comic book. With over 1 million copies in print and over 100 comics and graphic novels released to date, Dead World is not your typical "zombie comic book or story."

Dead World Zombie Soda is a beverage line conceived, marketed, and sold by Caprice Brands LLC based in Livonia, Michigan. The bottled drinks are manufactured by Intrastate Distributors located in Detroit, Michigan. Intrastate Distributors is one of Michigan's most prominent beverage bottlers, with brands such as Frostie Root Beer and Towne Club.  Deadworld Zombie Soda beverages are available in 12 flavors.

 

Ingredients: Filtered Water, Pure Cane Sugar, Caramel Color, Sodium Benzoate (Preservative), Citric Acid, and Natural Flavor.

Aroma and Flavor – 1.0 out of 3 mugs

This is a solid sugar and vanilla aroma.  I love vanilla, but this was excessive, so it was more like a crème soda than a root beer.  The overall sweetness is way too much for my liking. 

Head –1.0 out of 3 mugs

The head is solid and thick.  While it was slow to dissipate, little or no head remained.

Zip – 0.5 out of 3 mugs

Slow Decay has a unique bite and crispiness but is not a root beer.

Post Consumption Impression – 0.75 out of 3 mugs

I generally liked the flavor mix, not as a root beer but as a cream soda. They could reduce the sugar and make this more enjoyable for my preferences.

Would I recommend this at 3.25 out of 12 mugs?

This root beer is excessively sweet for me. It has a solid flavor mix, yet it tastes more like a cream soda than a root beer.
