#ale-8

This is the single most Appalachian thing I've ever seen and it makes me so happy.

Bam. I got some Ale-8 pawpaw soda. It's good! But does it taste like a pawpaw? Hmm... I guess? It's a banana and mango flavor with a bit pineapple, sweet yet not overpowering so, and pretty refreshing. There is a slight chemical taste, which there would be since its flavoring is just "natural flavors." This is probably as close as a company is going to get to stable pawpaw flavoring, but something is not right. Maybe this is what they taste like in Kentucky, but it's missing the vanilla flavor that I think the actual fruits have.

Anyway, it's actually really good and I wouldn't hesitate to grab another one.

7/10

I hardly ever drink soda anymore

But bless Kentucky for Ale-8. This stupid, highly caffeinated ginger ale is my lifeblood, tbh.

You'd think Kentucky's state drink would be ale8one or a mint julep but it's milk. Like wtf?
