Oops, I should've finished that post... I also meant to mention some
of the ginger beers: Reed's also makes one, although it's fairly mild.
It's a much different taste, although I do enjoy a ginger beer on
occasion as well. D+G Ginger Beer is a lot more potent. Most of them
I've had were kind of lemony, and had a bit of something bitter in
them too, Gentian perhaps?
