Bundaberg Ginger Beer (page 2 of 2)

Probably my favourite ginger beer. Refreshing served over ice especially in this dreadful heat. The perfect amount of ginger to not be overwhelming. The pull tab makes it harder to open, a lid would be better to keep from going flat.

Sometimes impossible to uncap bottle even using a lever. Carlton had same problem and changed back to screw top hence a full page ad in the
Courier Mail the other day. Love your product but hard to enjoy sometimes.

Rubbish product, wouldn't give it to my dog. 40grams of sugar which is enough to do some damage. Nothing more to say.

The amount of people I know who cut themselves or will the drink everywhere because of these horrible lids, a weak person would never get it off, drinks great, but not buying no more I'm over these lids

I'm a big fan of the Jamaican Ginger beer and thought I would expand into other brands. Got to say, this is not high on the list. 1st., tons of sugar...40mg. and it still tastes bad. Leaves an unpleasant after taste.

a friend intro ducted my family to ginger beer. At first I thought it was ok, then I really got a taste for it...hocked! One day I was reading the nutritional label, and found it to contain 50% of the daily intake of sugar...couldn't believe it. So now I have alittle, as I can't afford the calories. Mixing it into mineral water is a great option.

I am concerned by the number of people who say they have changed brands or cut themselves due to the Bundaberg Ginger Beer lids. Pull the ring straight out first then lift to peel off lid. This should solve the opening issues. Oh! And invert the bottle before opening to redistribute the sediment. Hope this helps!

My partner and i purchase the 750ml bottle screw cap bottles. They tend to past us longer and there's no need for the bottle opener. At $2.80 a bottle at woolworths its cheap for a mum like me im not going to say no and neither should you xx

Having been drinking soda water instead of alcohol or other unhealthy soft-drinks I thought maybe I could drink ginger beer on those occasions when you would normally have an alcoholic drink. But actually looking at the label I just realised that it has as much sugar in it as a can of coke! That's so disappointing...like I may as well have a Bundy Rum and Coke then.
So I must say I am rather disappointed because I thought ginger beer could have been a great option, I guess I will have to stick to soda water then...cold and fizzy but no sugar. If they could make a ginger beer with a lot less sugar ...(and not fake sugar either) that would be great.

This review is for the diet ginger beer and Diet sarsparella made by Bundaberg. Undeniably they are really good but I have given them 2 stars for the fact it is Diet and still contains cane sugar. Couldn't work out why my Blood Sugar Levels were so out of whack as I am diabetic, then I saw on the label that it contained sugar. Like many diabetics I'm used to Diet being sugar free. Very sneaky. Would be happy to revise this review and buy once more if it is made SUGAR FREE

Pretty good for a ginger beer but the "festive christmas edition" is even better with cinnamom and clove....
yummy scrummy!!
I too do prefer the screw top though

I occasionally purchase Bundaberg Ginger Alex. I find that it, almost immediately, quenches my thirst. I also enjoy a small bottle (stubbie) when I feel slightly nauseous . I love it 5/5,stars from me

It's not a real beer but I really love its smooth and refreshing flavour. I usually stock up on this drink as it is my go to drink when I want to pretend I am drunk but I am not. A healthy way for a mum like me to treat myself after a hard day's work of taking care of my bub.

Love the ginger beer, but unfortunately the pull cap lids are too difficult to open. Have cut my finger twice. Often the metal doesn't tear where it's supposed to, making the lid really hard to pull off. With the old screw tops the lid could be screwed back on, keeping the remaining ginger beer fizzy. Hubby said NO more Bundaberg, so we now buy Saxby's which is not as nice, but at least we can open the screw lids.

It is amazing but the company should change the lid i keep cutting my finger, cant live without it. Whoever don't like this has problems.

really good and so refreshing. they should change their lid system. it spills every time i open. else its very good.

Unable to open lid due to disability progression of MS means i have to find another brand. Not alone. Have cancer suffers who find the ginger settles their nausea drink other brands simply due to the lid issue.

I have just spilt my last drop of blood on my clothes and the last first mouthful of ginger beer on my shoes. Bar staff hate the stupid lids and everyone else comments on how bad they are. I switched to the screw top diet version ages ago but they have now been changed. Saxby have screw lids. Michael Anderson

Bundaberg drinks good but won't buy again because they have replaced the screw top. The new ones are way too hard to remove without spilling them. In fact my husband had to get pliers to remove one particular lid.

My first choice when offered a drink, delightful taste!
However, i find the bottle lets it down A LOT, my friend split his hand open on a cap!

I love Bundaberg, it's the one that I go for if I spot it on the shelf. There's a few ginger beer that I like, but Bundaberg is my favourite. I've even tried using it as a marinade once on a bbq, it was really nice but unfortunately I lost the receipt.

Finally, a soft drink that is really interesting. Whether or not it is good for you is a moot point. So many luxuries we love are not overly good for you anyway. However, I don't know much about its nutritional value, but I do know that it is seriously enjoyable. Almost as good as alcohol.

Wish this drink didnt taste so good im addicted to it. Also is sweetened with cane sugar not fructose which is better for you i hear. Bottle needs to be bigger though.

Growing up in Bundaberg I used to drink this all the time. After moving away I forgot how great it taste. I would recommend this ginger beer to anyone

my favourite fermented ginger beer with real ginger. love it, made the old fashion way, not many come close to this one commercially.

This is hands down my favorite ginger beer. Great Aussie family run business producing great drinks. I'm looking forward to trying out the new range of Lemon & Apple Cider.

Just sugar and a little flavour! Not ginger beer! Coles have it everyday for half the price I paid, so buyer beware! Spoilt me for online auctions - a real con job. Come in sucker!
I should have looked in Coles first, but believed this was an auction clear out. How did Product Review get my email addy? From Gray's?
Bottle looks great!
Sugary, weak, expensive.

Great taste, bit expensive, Australian Made. At least is is properly brewed rather than just a mixture of artificial flavours mixed together. I'll always have one at the back of my fridge. Just as good as many home brews I've tried. I don't know of a better ginger beer. If anyone can point one out, mention it in the comments below.
Great taste, Aussie Made, don't need to home brew yourself
Bit pricier but worth every cent

Not really a fan of Ginger Beer and would not pick it as a drink to have for enjoyment. I used this Ginger Beer throughout both of my pregnancies as it was fantastic to help with nausea. I do love the bottle that the Ginger Beer comes in as it looks great but I don't find it practical. I love that it is glass but as it does not have a screw top you have to drink all of it at once. When pregnant I liked to sip on it now and again so it would go back in the fridge at intervals and loose some of it's fizz.
Great to help with nausea.
I am not really a fan of the taste of Ginger Beer but must admit it tastes better than I imagined it would. Cannot close bottle if you do not want to drink it all at once.

I never was really a ginger beer fan till I tried Bundaberg Ginger beer. I don't find the taste too over powering. I like that it comes in individual bottles.
It tastes like decent ginger beer. I also like how you can buy it individually (as shown in picture) or in a 4-6 pack or a slab of the drink if your real keen.
I don't think it's that cheap, but I guess you pay for good quality.

Before trying this product, I hated ginger beer. However, after trying this product, I now love ginger beer. Compared to all other ginger beer products I have had, this one is the best by far. This is what real ginger beer should taste like.
By far, this is the best ginger beer on the market. It is so full of flavour and you can really taste the ginger in this product. It is also a good remedy if you have a sore throat!
It is a bit expensive, but this is a quality product, so it is to be expected. And there are no other cons to speak of!

Bundaberg Ginger Beer is one of the best tasting ginger beers you can find at the supermarket. Its flavour is wonderfully rich and tastes like a well brewed soft drink should. It is a huge difference from some of the other more watery ginger beers on the market and is very refreshing. It comes packaged in glass bottles which is great because I find that drinks taste better when they come in glass. It is a bit expensive, but well worth the money.
Delicious flavour. What you would expect a real ginger beer to taste like.
A bit pricey but worth it
