Ginger Ale by Bruce Cost™

Ginger Ale by Bruce Cost™
What do you call it?
Original Unfiltered Fresh Ginger Ale by Bruce Cost™
How much did you pay?
CAD 7.99 (I think) for a four-pack of 355ml glass bottles.
Advantage:
Made with "only real fresh ginger and pure cane sugar", "no oils and extracts". Large floating particles and sediments very apparent. Intentional no-frills packaging.
Disadvantage:
No kidding on the name - it really is gonna cost! It's more expensive than a conventional lager even.
Bottled/canned in:
It says "Product of USA".

Old Jamaican Ginger Beer

ting jamaica OLD BEER GINGER ALE sex toy bottle
Old Jamaican Ginger Beer.
What do you call it?
Old Jamaican Ginger Beer - Naturally & Artificially Flavoured Carbonated Beverage.
How much did you pay?
CAD 0.99 for 300ml glass bottle.
Advantage:
Looks premium. Old school label and branding.
Disadvantage:
Tastes just slightly better than those regular can drinks. Not very confident with the marketing of "naturally AND artificially flavoured".
Bottled/canned in:
Doesn't say but I bought this in a conventional supermarket in Ontario, Canada. It does say "Bottled for PC Jamaica Ltd, Kingston 11, Jamaica, W.I." on the label though.
