I will admit I am neither from Maine nor a fan or ginger. But I did buy a bottle of Ginger brew at summer camp. I have to admit I was surprised the second I brought the bottle to my mouth. I was expecting a Canada Dry taste like ginger ale. Oh no this was real ginger. It was absolutely horrible. It had like a spicy aftertaste. It made my wish I hadn’t wasted my two dollars. I don’t know about you but ginger does nothing for me as a refreshment. Luckily there was someone who did like the taste of the horrible drink. It was so bad I just gave him the rest of the bottle. Maybe Ginger Brew is an acquired taste. I sure hope so, but I will never try it again.
