A&W or Barqs

[Galen]

I'm about to spend a touch over $44 on a 24 case of either A&W Root Beer or Barq's Root Beer and I need suggestions.
I've only tried Barqs root beer, and I love it. but people keep telling me A&W is better. Decide for me.

I thank you.

[Galen]

Root beer is a beverage made from some combination of vanilla, cherry tree bark, licorice root, sarsaparilla root, sassafras root bark, nutmeg, anise, and molasses among other things. Each root beer has a unique recipe. Root beer constitutes about 3% of the U.S. soft drink market. Many local brands of root beer exist and home-made root beer is made from concentrate or (rarely) from roots.

A&W, more versatile as a root beer than barq's (too sharp for most other things than drinking straight)

 

[HifiGirly]

I like both, but umm... A&W.

$44????????

I could buy 11 24 packs for that much give or take. What about Mug or Dad's?

IBC Root beer is the best

If you can't find IBC, A&W, then Barq's.

It's all about IBC. There is no other rootbeer.

That's true too.

IBC and other 'microbrewed' rootbeers

 

[Pandora]

That's true too.

You said A&W tho.

 

[BigDov]

You folks not in the NW are missing out on Thomas Kemper 'microbrewed' rootbeers and all other sorts of flavored sodas

I always wanted to drive past a cop while chuggin on an IBC in the brown bottle, and then laugh as they try to give me a dwi.
Of course, the ass-beating Id recieve once they figured out I was fucking with them woulddnt be worth it...
