Ginger ale and ginger beerIf you are talking about the soft drinks (soda, pop, etc.), the Carbonated Beverages that contain no alcohol, then there is no difference. Both are flavored with ginger (or artificial ginger flavorings) and sweetened with sugar, corn syrup, or artificial sweeteners.

Authentic ginger beer is an alcoholic beverage that was very popular in the 19th century and early 20th century but and fell out of favor in the U.S. during Prohibition. It never made much of a comeback after Prohibition's repeal.

The original recipe requires ginger (often from Jamaica), sugar, and water to which ginger beer plant (GBP) is added. GP is a mixture of yeast and bacteria, called SCOBY and causes to different forms of fermentation to occur. Fermentation over a few days turns the mixture into ginger beer.
