Dog n Suds

So lets get this journey going. First we have Dog n Suds root beer. I found this gem within the massive soft drink section of Nugget Market in Davis. This place is as good a grocery store as it gets for a root beer lover. The word plethora seems much to small to number the varieties of root beers. Oh and all the root beers are REFRIGERATED!! That's a big deal for me. Anyway you get it, the place is sweet yadda yadda. The only way I could pick a root beer to start with was to judge by its label. As you can see Dog n Suds was the obvious choice.

Aside from the fact that I have NO idea why the word suds is in the name, I like this label. Its cartoony, its whimsical. Its everything root beer stands for. But really though, I dig the label.

This root beer is also the perfect 'beginner' root beer. The taste was very simple but delicious. The first thing I noticed was the smoothness and perfect amount of carbonation. This is a great way to start off a drink. After the initial taste there is a light yet deep vanilla note which was very welcome. Then came the slight bite to break up the sweet and smooth. Overall I was satisfied with each and every sip of this simple yet delicious root beer.

Dog n Suds thrives on its simplicity, so if that is what you are looking for, go grab yourself a cold one. Since there was nothing overly fancy about this which can help or hurt it. In this case the simplicity raised yet limited Dog n Suds' score.
