Root beer has been an American staple for centuries, quenching the thirst and
aiding the digestion.
Early American 'small beers' were made from herbs, barks, roots, berries and
mollasses that contained 2-12% alcohol. The invention of these beverages
(birch beer, ginger beer, sarsparilla and early root beer) were driven by the
shortage of barley for traditional beer. The colonists soon found that by
adding large amounts of molasses they could get just about anything to ferment.
Charles Hires blended together from more than 25 herbs, berries and roots to
create his particular brew and introduced commercial, non-alcoholic root beer to
the public at the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial Exhibition. By 1893, the
Hires family sold bottled versions of their well-known brew, sealing their place
in root beer history.
