Wrong. Especially if you're talking Maine Root, the yummy root beer got its start in Portland, Maine. While working at Flatbread Pizza Co. — and sipping the less-than-stellar root beer on tap at the time — Maine Root founder Matt Seiler decided to craft a better brew.
The result, sweetened with organic sugar cane juice, rather than high fructose corn syrup, is crisp and delicious, and a bit different from your average root beer. Some tasters attribute the unique flavor to the clove-wintergreen ratio (Maine Root is heavy on the wintergreen). We think it's because everything tastes better in Maine.
