A&W Diet Root Beer Fridge Pack Cans, 355 mL, 12 Pack

Product Information

The flavor is extremely good for a diet root beer—it’s round with cooked sugar flavor (not fake sugar) and some notes of winter spices. Diet Stewart’s is the best diet root beer we tasted—it has tons of extremely small bubbles, a nice, spiced cinnamon or nutmeg quality, and it doesn’t taste like fake sweetener at all.

B. More precious environs carry some of the full-sugar, glass-bottle varietals — IBC, Virgil’s, Boylan, Stewart’s — but those all tend too much toward the sweet side. For reference, a typical 8-ounce (240-ml) cup of coffee contains approximately 96 mg of caffeine, which is about 4 times the amount in a can of Barq’s ( 2). Our farming technique on our local farms in Dorset and Wiltshire is influenced by the very successful methods set-up by grass root farmers in France back in the 1960’s. I would definitely pick this as the best diet root beer if I was looking for something to settle my tummy. While most varieties of root beer sold in North America do not contain caffeine, it’s best to read the label.

Keep in mind that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does not require manufacturers to disclose the exact amount of added caffeine in food products ( 6).

If you’re trying to reduce your caffeine intake or cut it out completely, be sure to check the ingredient label of your beverages carefully to determine if they contain added caffeine.The sweetness (and the 45 calories) comes from the inclusion of “real Wisconsin honey,” whatever that means, but it tastes decidedly less artificial than other diet root beers — even my beloved Barq’s. That ineffable mix of vanilla, licorice, and wintergreen flavors, a little bit of anise or nutmeg, perhaps — it’s a liquefied spice cake of a drink. It should be sweet and slightly spiced and it definitely shouldn’t end on that telltale chemical flavor so many diet sodas have. Ingredients: Filtered Carbonated Water, Caramel Colour (E150a), Preservative (Sodium Benzoate), Sweetener (Aspartame, Acesulfame Potassium), Natural and Artificial Flavours, Malic Acid, Quillaia Extract.
