Saxbys Ginger Beer

Smooth tasting. Compared to other top brands. Definitely a preferred choice now I have tried it Show details
Favourite ginger beer - not overly sweet like some other Australian ginger beers. Haven't bought the diet version, just the regular style. Best value in the 750ml bottle. Loved the Ginger beer with jalapeno, but think that was just a special run, no longer available. Show details
Really refreshing drink – Marty has no idea, Saxbys ginger beer is top of the table Show details
What's happened – I have always been a lover of saxbys diet ginger beer only soft drink I have. But somewhere they have changed recipe and cannot drink the new one. Please go back to your original one Show details
Taste of artificial sweetener is overpowering – If the artificial sweetener wasn’t so overpowering I think it would taste lovely. Leaves a filmy residue in your mouth from the additives. I didn’t even think to check the label and assumed no artificial flavours and colours would mean no sweeteners either Show details
Ridicoulous prices at pop up stall – Pop up stall at a Port Macquarie community event sold wine in little plastic cups. There was a random green line with some text and another line for 150ml on the cup. They filled it up to the first line, which was probably around 100ml. I asked if it's supposed to be the 150ml line and they insisted it was correctly filled. 100ml cheap wine for $8, what a rip-off. Show details
Delicious no sugar Ginger Beer – Excellent crisp ginger taste. Like a mixture of sugar cane juice and ginger. Delicious and refreshing! I would be even more delighted if the bottles came in 1.25 litre as well as 700 ml! Show details
Product issue – Sometime ago I bought a pack of 4, gingerbread ,375ml from Woolworths, one bottle was empty with a fully sealed cap I just got 2 more out to have a drink with my wife again fully sealed & 1 was half empty, no doubt a filling issue.Information is the same on all bottles.thebarcode # is 93215206., the printed # on the brown glass bottle is " Best… Read more
before Feb 2023, 21060 06: 31.The empty with untouched cap is in my possession , Iam not complaining g it has not bothered up but after finding the second one I thought you should know about it. As for when we bought it we think just before Xmas, as I said iam not complaining just bringing it to your info.
screw on lid – love the product but lately the lid is put on far too tight and most difficult to open. Even my wife who can do almost anything can't open them and gives them to me. this prooblem seems to have started only in the last 6 months ??? Show details
Best commercial ginger beer available – Saxbys diet ginger beer is my all-time favourite. Less sweetener and a lot more kick. The only Gb to beat it would be an old fashioned 28 day brew we made as kids. Saxbys is just not available in enough supermarkets off the shelf. They need to get a lot more pro-active in marketing and supply. I like it so much I drive 30 minutes to the only woolies in my area that stocks it. Show details
The best ginger beer – I buy the diet or no sugar one, but this is my absolute favourite ginger beer that’s available in supermarkets. Much better than competitors that is mostly marketing. And Australian made and owned! Show details
Goto soft drink – I personally prefer Saxbys diet Ginger beer to Bunderberg's diet GB. I find BDGB too heavy on the artificial sweetness and a lack of a full ginger beer flavour. Saxbys is alot more refreshing and has a lower artificial sweetner flavour. The ginger is more pronounced and tangy, with this Saxby's Diet Ginger beer is a my preference between the two.

Saxby’s ginger beer – I didn’t know ginger was great for helping to digest food. I usually buy Bundaberg's, however, this one was on special. Hated the diet version but this is just nice! Great with vanilla ice cream! Show details

diet ginger beer – Great taste with bite . Was never a fan of ginger beer but this one almost has a ginger ale bite to it which i like. not like some others which have a dirt flavour. Show details
Jar of sugar – Purchased a bottle to try with a scotch...way too sweet for my liking, could barely taste the ginger through the sugar! Sugar sugar sugar sugar sugar sugar sugar sugar sugar Show details
Far too sweet, sugar is fast becoming a no - no – Tried it once & immediately regreted the purchase. It's just far too sweet; aimed at young kids perhaps? I certainly would not allow my kids to drink it or any other similar product.
The Best! – The Best Ginger Beer better than Bunderberg! Drank Bundaberg before and then found saxby who is way better! Saxby ginger beer is just the perfect taste!
Great drink – Saxbys is one, if not the best Ginger Beers available & has that real bite that the best ginger beers have. Great Drink
The best i've tasted – Had this recommended to me as i said Bundaberg was my ginger beer of choice with my rums. Saxbys is so much better... will thank him later.
Just came back from Stroud and bought this Saxby's diet Ginger Beer... WOW! – Best ginger beer I've ever had from a commercial bottler. Very gingery/peppery not too sweet, nice fizziness - perfect for a Sydney heatwave! Far better than Bundaberg....
Old bottles better – Great product Original Stone Ginger beer. Buy lots, Much better than Bundabergs pepper water, BUT I don't like being conned. The new bottles only contain 330mls against the old ones with 375mls. Now only get 1/12 glasses instead of two for the same price. That's a big drop. The scungy cost accountants have struck at quantity again. You would be better off charging more rather than this sneaky move to your customers. Show reply
I can't get through the day without one! Love it! – I prefer the Saxby ginger beer flavour to any other ginger beer. I even take it with me when we go on holidays. It's the only drink I really love.

Saxbys diet ginger beer – Best tasting bottled diet ginger beer on the market. Having trouble purchasing this product though. Cokes and Woolworths not stocking it.
Dreadful – A poor imitation of ginger beer. Sadly lacking in every element. Does not come within a country mile to its major competitors.
Great option to the real beer & better for you – Took to drinking it six months ago after trying a competitors drink. This is the best on the market and it is good for the weight. The taste was far better then the competitors that I had tasted and it was well balanced.
The Best – I've had a lot of trouble finding Saxby's Ginger Beer of late. It no longer seems to be carried by Coles stores near me. I bought Bundaberg as a substitue - awful! Well, certainly not to my taste. I came to this website to check that Saxby's was still in production and am so relieved that it is. It is my drug of addiction! I'll be checking out Woolies tomorrow. 1 - taste 2 - taste 3 - taste
Saxby's gingerless beer – While being a member of a family of ginger beer lovers, I guess you could say I'd be a tough cookie to impress...... My husband bought a 4 pack from Coles & said "this is what we Smith's were raised on, I love this brand." He poured us both a glass & with our first mouthful we looked at each other with an expression of do i swallow or spit it… Read more
out !
Disappointment to say the least.
You may have noticed that there isn't even a star rating, this is because there was no ginger taste or bubble in the drink. (Much like drinking water & sugar)
Sadly in good conscience I couldn't recommend this product.
Should this be of interest to anyone at Saxby's the batch number is 93215206.
Okay, so I have to place a star rating to place my review. ....not happy
Excellent – Saxbys is Australian made and owned. It's the best Ginger Beer available in Australia and perfect on a hot summers day, accompanied by fresh fish and chips. No.1 in my opinion! Saxbys Ginger Beer and Diet Ginger Beer are made with real ginger (unlike others). It has a true old fashioned ginger beer taste. Coles and Woolworths fail to stock this product on a regular basis - thank you IGA and Franklins!! Show reply
The perfect summer beverage – I love the ginger beer- not overly sweet and great on a hot summers day. I wish it was easier to find a place to buy it! I love the taste better than Bundeberg's concoction. Show reply
Good – We picked up this ginger beer because it was on sale, and I'm glad we bought it. Its great tasting, plus its an Aussie make. It is nice and refreshing when you dont want to have the usual taste of cola or lemon drinks. Its a very light and refreshing taste and still has the fizz which is great. Since it comes in a multipack, its easy to buy and… Read more
store in the fridge so that I can enjoy it nice and cold. This is a great tasting light ginger beer which has a lovely hint of ginger which is so yummy and not over powering. I love the fact that this is an Aussie company which is great and the product tastes great too! Sometimes its a bit hard to find this on the shelf in the supermarket, but I am seeing this a bit more regularly, so its not too hard to find nowadays.
