Taste of Bermuda

Hi y'all,
Yah I suck with the lack of updates, no excuse, I actually just forgot I had a blog until last night when Curtis showed me this post from engaget  uncrate.com about Bermuda Barrit's Ginger Beer. So I got all excited and wanted to blog about it, but have been busy and brain dead all day so here goes:

Bermuda doesn't export anything except Onions and in recent years our Gosling Black Rum, but it appears that now at a fair $40 you can have a sip of Paradise with a 2-4 of ginger beer...  Just so we're clear my non- Bermudian friends, there's no beer in Ginger Beer!! Is there any other kind of soda you'd pay that kind of money for?  I mean the stuff is pretty good, takes some getting used to tho, especially to a Canadian who is expecting Gingerale...

From Uncrate:

Barritts Ginger Beer

Not to be confused with the original, alcoholic version of ginger beer — or even ginger ale, for that matter — Barritts Ginger Beer ($40/24-pack) has been a Bermudan staple since 1874. It's made from pure cane sugar, and sports a ginger bite that makes it great by itself or in the elusive perfect Dark 'N' Stormy.


Bermuda gal for life, I have the necesseties in my fridge and Barmoire at all times... Yes, I drink Kool Aid.
