Question: what is the difference between vernors and ginger ale?
Answer: Vernors is a sweet “golden” ginger ale that derives its color from caramel and has a robust flavor (similar to that of ginger beer). The Vernors style was common before Prohibition, after which "dry" pale ginger ale (typified by Canada Dry Ginger Ale) became popular as a drink mixer. Vernors is highly carbonated.
