Non-Alcoholic, Gluten Free
Big, sweet, flavorful and old-fashioned!
Saint Arnold Root Beer is made with Imperial Cane Sugar (absolutely no high fructose corn syrup) and lots of yummy (but secret) flavorings. The cane sugar gives it a sweetness and mouthfeel that cannot be achieved through corn syrup. The flavors explode in your mouth. The only way to improve on our Root Beer is to add a scoop of vanilla ice cream!

In the earlier days of Saint Arnold, we noticed we had a lot of families attending our tours with their children. To give them something to enjoy while their parents enjoyed our beer, we wanted to introduce a non-alcoholic option to our lineup. Root beer seemed like a fun idea.
And so the research began. Making root beer is much more of an immediate gratification process compared to beer. You heat up some water to dissolve the sugar, then you cool it down and add the root extracts. We developed a good root beer base, but we wanted a great root beer, so we started playing around with small amounts of natural flavors. We finally found one that worked great and went with it. And just like that, our secret recipe was born.
We use all cane sugar in our root beer which is more expensive but creates a great mouthfeel, giving ours a much fuller sweetness than the thin sweet taste one gets with high fructose corn syrup.
Strange fact: drinking root beer gives you very refreshing burps. It’s the wintergreen.
