Make sure root beer is ice cold, like nearly frozen. Room temp (warm) root beer can have a cough syrup flavor to some people.
Also there are a TON of different types of root beer. Some are better than others. I’m a 1919 and Triple XXX fan. Sprecher is also good, but the others are better, just sprechers is easier to get.
Warm root beer is an entirely different drink. Still good IMO, the taste is softer and more drawn out. Cold rootbeer is crisper with a cleaner (by comparison) finish.
Two things could hardly be more different than root beer and mouth wash. To be fair, there are a lot of different varieties of root beer - some with a heavy licorice flavor, others stronger vanilla or whatever, but they’re all sweet.
As someone else suggested, maybe you got a strong ginger beer? Those can be pretty spicy.
Nope, A&W root beer. Maybe a have some weird gene mutation like some people have one that makes cilantro taste like soap. I bought a can and even got a root beer float. Still mouthwash (not the ice cream part).
I dint know if the most disgusting, but the biggest delta between expectation and reality was root beer.
Expected something vanilly or maybe gingery, got mouthwash. I genuinely spit the first sip.
