Odd ginger is generally considered to be a good thing for an upset stomach,
even some of the travel sickness tablets have it in them.  Its wildly
different to ginger ale, which here is about 150% synthetic.  Its probably a
more intense taste, with less actual bite than ginger ale has.  Not sure if
our stomachs are made of sterner stuff or the brew you got is different to
ours.  I guess the question is, was it brewed locally or here?  If its local
then I can't really make much of a comparison, if its ex-Australia, then
thats probably pretty much the way it is. I know its not everyones cup of
tea. Bundaberg actually do a brewed sarsaparilla which isn't bad either.
