de gustibus non drpepperum est

[rone]

I found real-sugar Dr Pepper at Lunardi's this weekend and was compelled to purchase it.  But does it make a difference?  Unlike Throwback Pepsi, which recipe lacks the modern Pepsi's fatal flaw of citric acid, Heritage Dr Pepper and modern Dr Pepper have the same list of ingredients, except of course for sugar versus high-fructose corn syrup, and both of which contain 40 grams of Sugars.  I thought the taste of the Heritage was milder than what i remembered from my last regular DrP.  Would my assessment hold up to a triangle test?

I brought a can of Heritage to work and poured it into two cups and some regular DrP into another.  My two coworkers picked the regular as being distinctly sweeter, but i could not discern any difference.  More testing is needed.
