Hey John,
OK, I just looked at a bottle of my root beer and ugh, there is corn syrup and high fructose corn syrup. I guess their secret is that both of those ingredients come AFTER real sugar and real Virginian honey.
What the heck: here's the ingredient list:
carbonated water, sugar, honey, corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup, natural and artificial flavor extracts, yucca, sodium benzoate- a preservative- and citric acid. Contains no caffeine.
There you have it. All I know is that this root beer is the best I've ever had. Maybe it's the Virginian honey. The brewery was founded by a government worker who decided to quit his damn boring desk job and gamble his life's savings on starting a local beer brewery. The brewery is about ten miles from my place, is very successful, and they have a huge beer festival every summer.
Here's their website if you wish to contact them and order some beer:
Old Dominion Brewing Co.
