If a deli in New York City did not offer this to drink,
it would lose its deli license, I'm sure.
Bottle appearance:
Very unassuming bottle.
Soda appearance:
Looks just like ginger ale with a fast-dying head.
Smell:
Smells exactly like celery.
First Impression of taste:
My initial take on this is of ginger. Greg thinks it tastes
like a flat Vernors.
Second Impression:
The celery seed kicks in quickly, but it's not as gross as
you might be thinking.
Flavor:
Just like the name and ingredients imply, it tastes like
celery. It is fresh and clean and really tasty.
Carbonation:
Med/high - fast forming and fast-dying head, nice prickle
as you drink it.
Full Description:
This isn't a gimmicky drink like some of the exotic sodas -
it is just a celery seed flavored soda that has been around for years. I
really like it, but I used to drink it back in college all the time. It
tastes great despite the fact that a vegetable based soda isn't "normal". Greg
is clueless on this one - he can't taste the celery at all and just feels
it's a wimpy ginger ale.
Score:
Greg and I don't agree on this one, but as I mentioned above,
he doesn't have a very refined nose or pallet. He gives it an apathetic 4
and I give it a 5 - I love this stuff!
