The label for Rocket Fizz Root Beer Float walks a fine line between looking slightly cheap and generic but at the same time, really cool. The label has an over-sized version of the Rocket Fizz logo, which shows a young boy riding a rocket that has circled the earth, holding a bottle of soda. Unfortunately, it appear s the boy is holding a grape soda instead of a root beer or birch beer. Without question, however, the best part of the label is its shimmering metallic look.

I had a little trepidation about downing Rocket Fizz Root Beer Float. A root beer float soda sounded gimmicky. Sure, root beer floats are great, but how do you harness that creamy, frothy goodness in a bottled soda. I expected the soda to be a total miss. Had I been blindfolded, I don’t think I would have guessed this was root beer float flavored soda. However, the flavor is good. Rocket Fizz Root Beer Float has a typical root beer feel with an added kick of sweetness. It tastes almost like bubble gum, which does not sound appetizing, but works well. As a result, even if the soda doesn’t succeed in replicating a root beer float, it is successful as a soda.

Overall Score: 7 of 10.
