A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

- The entire showerthought must be in the title

Yes, That is why it is also called Ginger Beer and Root Beer is also called Wintergreen Ale
To be clear, the drinks labeled ginger beer in every store i've been to is VERY different from the one labeled ginger ale
But is it more different than many types of beers and ales that are alcoholic?
