Guys, Yardhouse puts mint leaves in their D&S. I thought this was normal until just now googling the recipe. I have nothing to compare it to, but their D&S is delish.

pissclams · « **Reply #131 on:** July 08, 2013, 05:44:55 PM »

mint...meh, take it to the Not A D&S thread

Rams · « **Reply #132 on:** July 08, 2013, 06:57:44 PM »

OK so I picked up a single bottle of maine root and single bottle of ginger people to compare. I like the spice of maine root but it's almost equally sweet and spicy to me. like almost too sweet...but I'm pretty sensitive to sweet drinks. I like the flavor of ginger people but wish it were spicier. I may just combine them.

pissclams · « **Reply #133 on:** July 08, 2013, 07:22:51 PM »

i think all ginger beer is pretty sweet. + you're mixing it w/ rum.

Making ginger beer might be the perfect application for my The Beer Machine^TM, which isn't that great at making beer beer.

can you compare it to bundaberg?

puniraptor · « **Reply #139 on:** April 04, 2015, 10:58:22 PM »

No, is that the best? I can only compare it to cocknbull and some weird stuff from the natural food store.

it's pretty good, i think. people like different ones. fentimen's was my favorite, iirc, from when i tasted several before settling in on bundaberg. but i don't buy it because it's stupid expensive.

Reed's all natural Jamaican extra ginger brew is the horrible stuff. Avoid at all costs

Q ginger is pretty decent

I'm not a ginger beer connoisseur but bundaberg is easiest for me to get my hands on and I like it

sys · « **Reply #145 on:** April 04, 2015, 11:24:14 PM »

i'm going to prepare myself a d&s right now. goddamn.

mocat · « **Reply #146 on:** April 04, 2015, 11:28:57 PM »

I like it sys

pissclams · « **Reply #147 on:** April 05, 2015, 11:32:33 AM »

goslings is pretty good, i'd put it at 80% on a 100% scale.

obvi maine root is the best but in a pinch, goslings is acceptable

i received two brand spanking new copper mugs for easter. i refuse to retire my D&S chalice but will use the mugs from time to time

Drinking a black seal stormy with Stoli ginger beer. The stoli is pretty spicy compared to the others I have had. It's really good.
