Spiritless Kentucky 74

First time trying an alcohol free "spirit". The concept seems like a bit of an oxymoron and I'm probably a full on moron for buying this, but what the hell. Nose: Smells like a melted root beer popsicle. Palate: Shockingly bad on its own. Tastes like Jack Daniels and Dr. Pepper that's been filtered through old gym socks and then left under a couch for a few months. Finish: It can't end quickly enough. Mixed with a lot of soda water and some Angostura bitters, it's at least palatable. But man I'll be sticking to my non-alcoholic beer when I want a boozeless drink. Try everything once I guess.

I see what they're trying to do, with the added "oakiness", but no. Tastes sour, in a "it's gone bad" kind of way. Weird pepper taste on the backend, too.

Bad notes of unsweetened, oversteeped tea and stale apple juice. Not drinkable

Tastes like flat, old Dr Pepper, not good

Tastes like medicine
