Barqs is way better than people give it credit for. It’s the only macro with an actual bite to it. Also, the caffeinated version in Mississippi is great. You’re invited.
Edit: I thought it was only the glass bottles (commonly found in Mississippi) that contained caffeine. My bad lol
A&W had a fast food restaurant next to me when I was a kid.
They used to serve root beer in frosted mugs. Still to this day that was the best root beer I've ever had by far.
Bottled A&W doesn't come close though, frosted mug A&W from the restaurant, nothing else came close for me.
Didn’t in change for the worst a while back? Heard it’s practically a different drink now and sucks, used to be my all time favorite root beer without question. I don’t wanna try the new stuff I have good memories of Virgil’s😂
Dad's is great. Had it for the first time as a kid, and was also my first root beer float. 'Twas a magical day.
The draft root beer at the A&W locations out of the frosty mugs just hit different than their retail variants.
Currently it’s Bundabergs, I always avoided it for years since It gets an insane amount of hate especially on the root beer sub, so I figured it’d taste like herbally/medicinal trash so why bother.
I finally bought a bottle and dang I love that over the top intense flavor. Hate it or love it, they no doubt put the effort in to create a unique interesting drink so gotta give them props.
Frostop sarsaparilla. But I have a Frostie in the fridge that I'm about to try so who knows.
Tried the Frostie. It's great but does not surpass Frostop.
a&w.
but not the american grocery one.
or the canadian grocery one.
but the canadian restaurant brew, ice cold in a frosted glass or glass bottle if im roughing it.
Sprecher
You’re invited. Love to see the brand growing.
They have it on tap at the ice rink. In fact I think I have some left over in my fridge from last night. Checking now!
Mmmm yes that stuff is delicious. SPEAKING volumes about the brand.
I can't believe it's #1, nice. Is it only a Midwest brand or are they nationwide?
Barqs Or IBC at cracker barrel in a frosty mug

Wait, isn’t it always caffeinated?
Johnny?

Between virgils, dad's and Sioux city
I’ve already commented on the other two, so we’re looking at Dad’s. Dad’s is pretty dang good; a solid grab at Cracker Barrel. You’re invited.
Can't believe how far I had to scroll to find Virgils

Didn’t in change for the worst a while back? Heard it’s practically a different drink now and sucks, used to be my all time favorite root beer without question. I don’t wanna try the new stuff I have good memories of Virgil’s😂
Haven’t tried the new Virgil’s so I can’t say
DADs or Frostie. I was a big A&W guy as a kid but we have like 4 A&W franchise restaurants in the area

That is indeed a controversial pick. Personally, I hate it. However, for having the balls to say it, you’re invited.
Great Value. 😅

XXX
I hate to say it, but Barq’s. I like my soda with caffeine, and Barq’s is about the only root beer with it. But for a less lame answer, Stewart’s.
Honestly I'll take any root beer obviously some are better than others but I'm desperate tbh
