A&W>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Barq's

Aged vanilla. And it's got that frosted mug taste.

Not even close.

Similar but not on point.

I don't drink pop very often, but when I do, A&W is on my short list of pops I want.

Can't drink regular beer, so I go a bit over on RB.

Like A&W for regular root beer. (~$4.25/12 pack) Like Saranac for a better RB (~$5/6 pack). I like how you can get the Saranac in a diet with an indistinguishable taste from the regular.

Was visiting in-laws in GB, and we were headed north, stopped for lunch at a hole-in-the wall bar in the middle of nowhere. They had Sprecher on tap. Served in a big ice cold mug, breathtaking. Have some in cans, good, but nothing compared to on tap. Same for regular brewed beer, too (tap v bottled or canned)

 

[Frostillicus]

This shouldn't be close.

Barq's has Bite!

 

[John Bender]

Diet A&W is the best diet drink in existence (IMO)

 

[Sinn Fein]

Had a Root-Beer at Culvers tonight

But, I think they have their own brand now - no longer use A&W.

You're right about one thing. It's not a contest. It's a coronation. And A&W is being crowned.

Theft is the only way IBC could get it. Because IBC doesn't have the ability to earn it.

Best mass produced root beer has to be Dad's. Though A&W is good, Dad's smacks it around like it's #####.

I imagine the sweat off your AV's balls tastes better than Dad's.

I can't wait until some dummy comes in here and tries to tell us Mug is better.

Used to love IBC, I had forgotten all about it. I only drink Fitz's now.

 

[eoMMan]

There's a difference between any of these root beers?

Go get some IBC and remind yourself of it's root beery goodness.

Virgil's is best in category

Isn't it all just 'coke?'

"hey, get me a coke."

"What do you want?"

"I'll have an A&W."

I went down to the grocery store where I'd bought some root beer years before. But the man there said the root beer wouldn't sell.

Most people in the Midwest call soft drinks pop ...dork.

We used to get it to go from the restaurant in big paper cones. Seemed like it was better that way ...but that was too long ago, way before A&W was in cans/bottles.

There's a store in Minnesota that has all kinds of root beers and creme sodas and the like from all over the country - like 1000s of options. I have a Judge Wapner Root Beer in my fridge. I'm afraid to drink it but I really like having that bottle in there.

"To-Go" root beer cones. Wow - these look pretty old, but I think they still had them at least well into the 80s.

Back in the day there was an old woman who had a grandfathered homestead in the BWCA. She made root beer and sold it to sustain herself. Damn that stuff was good.

Her name was Dorothy something. First visited in 1974. The last time I saw her would have been maybe 1986.

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

The best pie I ever had was from an old lady in Minnesota too. I was driving SW out of the twin cites. I was suffering from severe munchies. There was a little diner roadside off a county highway. I pulled in for coffee and decided to try a slice of deep dish Dutch apple pie, sort of trying to wake up for the late night drive. I left with six pies.

I'm from New Orleans, so I'm nowhere near unbiased, but give me a cold Barq's in a bottle with an oyster loaf all day long...

Barq's isn't really root beer anyway. It's more like a sarsaparilla...

Fitz's & Sprecher are the top notch RB's. Taste like candy in a bottle.

A guy I work with would bring me a couple sixers of this every time he went home to visit family in Wisconsin. I didn't have the heart to tell him that Holiday Market near my home carried it.
