| | Encyclopedia Rootannica: Frequently Asked Questions About Root Beer |
| | Root Beer is a sweetened, carbonated beverage originally made using the root of a sassafras plant (or the bark of a sassafras tree), with sassafras as the primary flavor. | | | Birch beer is similar to root beer, but is flavored with the bark of the birch tree and does not contain sassafras. | | | Thus birch beer is different from root beer. |

| | Interesting Ideas: Root beer |
| | The most common problem tasters found with the various root beers was excessive sweetness, while the winners generally rated highly for their deep "root beer flavor." Even the winning brands, however, received few kudos for creaminess, a traditional marker of great root beer. | | | Root beer is in fact an elastic concept, with every maker having its own definition of what it should be. | | | The people at Sioux City Sarsaparilla are emphatic that their product is not even root beer -- a claim contradicted by its distinctly root-beer flavor and the fact that sarsaparilla and root beer are traditionally interchangeable. |

The label describes the process thusly: "a steeping of whole, botanical herbs, roots and spices by a unique time and temperature method. | | | She explained that the root beer is sweetened with cane sugar, not corn syrup, as a typo on the label indicates, but our reviewers thought the most apparent sweetener to be honey. |

| | Birch beer, another soft drink with striking similarity to root beer, is also mostly brewed from natural ingredients, such as the bark of the birch tree. | | | Smooth, spicy, probably the best root beer there is. One indication of its greatness is that it's usually specifically mentioned on the menus of those restaurants which have it, instead of the normal, generic "root beer." This is the Cadillac of the root beer category. | | | Root beer, the original American soft drink, is only 100 years younger than the nation itself. |
