and... What the hell is ROOT BEER???
A drink brewed from the root of the sarsaparilla tree. It is much sweeter than regular beer.
It is brown-black, usually carbonated, and can be either alcoholic or nonalcoholic (unlike regular beer, where non-alcoholic brands are seen as "weird").
As such, many non-alcoholic Root Beer Brands such as Barq's and Mug are sold as soft drinks, and many people under 21 drink non-alcoholic root beer as an alternative to regular beer.
