Many items here seem determined to give no offense in any way at all; all I wanted was something cold to drink. Lemon ginger beer from The Ginger People (12 fl. oz.; $1.49) had the typical taste duo of sourness at the front of the mouth, bite at the back, but mellowed considerably. Cloudy — from the addition of ginger, according to the label.
