(Cost Plus World Market, January 2011)
Bulldog Root Beer, like many other brews before it, uses honey as a secondary sweetener. Thankfully, unlike some of those “other brews,” the honey here is not overpowering, yet still manages to smooth out the texture quite a bit. Honey definitely still accounts for much of the initial taste and aftertaste, but there is still a nice root-y flavor in there. Said root-y flavor is mild compared to the rich honey flavor, making me wonder if the herb flavor would perhaps be stronger if the honey was toned down a bit.
With that in mind though, I’m sometimes willing to overlook a slightly milder root-y flavor when the overall beverage goes down smoothly. That means I will probably go for more Bulldog from time to time in the future. On that note, Bulldog gets a high 3.5.
