Product Description
Although root beer dates back to the 1860's, it was not until recently that there has been a dramatic sales increase in this flavor category. This new popularity is due partly to the super-creamy style of root beer that is now being bottled. Although these vanilla-laden root beers are tasty and have instant appeal, we believe taht consumers will tire of them quickly. It is for this reason that Boylan had chosen to develop an authentic, traditional tasting root beer. Ours has a rich and spicy sassafras flavor with only a subtle creamy note.

Customer Reviews
The Best Root Beer at any Price!
Boylan's Root Beer is the finest drink of it's kind. The pure cane sugar really makes an enormous difference in the taste, unlike most others who use corn syrup. This is exactly what happened to Coke products when they changed to corn sweeteners. It really lost something! Try a Coke bottled in Mexico or Central America and you will see what I mean. This fact, along with Boylan's excellent blend of flavorings, makes their root beer the absolute best! I give it a hearty two thumbs up!
The Beer that Made Haledon Famous
Boylan's Bottleworks Root Beer has a thin-necked amber bottle that harkens back to the days of real root beer...the kind made with bark and roots. OF course, the proof is in the taste, and Boylan delivers here too. While it has a moderate head of foam, the taste is dryer than the more popular root beers, and seems more authentic. Another reviewer commented on the cane sugar sweetening, which also imparts a less syrupy taste and texture than corn syrup; I concur.
The root beer has a fresh, clean taste, that seems to cut through lingering food flavors. It's a very satisfying, and truer tasting drink than the diluted "hint" of root beer offered elsewhere. There is a distinct peppery aftertaste which is only partially moderated by ice; I enjoyed this although it took a while to get used to. (This taste may be due to the yucca extract.) ALl together, this is both a thirst quencher as well as a unique "brew" that can be sipped slowly for the utmost enjoyment.
Root beer was invented in 1875 by Mr. Hires (the name may be familiar to you), although precursors were available many years earlier. It's estimated that there have been over 2,000 root beer brands. Boylan's, based in Haledon, New Jersey, is also well known for its birch beer, a related product.
