barqs is better than A&W because it has more flavor.
HEB has a decent store brand root beer, even in diet, for a great price.
I like IBC the best though.

will i need to go on urban dictionary to find out what that means, or is that really a root beer?

a&w but only if you get it straight from a&w and not that canned shit from grocery stores.

:tu I remember going to the old A&W drive-ins and getting a nice cold root beer in those frosted mugs.

Gotta vote for Maine Root Rootbeer (http://www.maineroot.com/products_rootbeer.php) and Sarsaparilla. (http://www.maineroot.com/products_sarsaparilla.php)

I don't really care, I like both pretty much equally.
Mug is the root bear that blows of these 3 main brands.
Barqs>A&W>>>Mug

Oddly enough Freakonomics actually addressed the shitty service at the A & W (a Yum brand) stores.

I've always liked A&W. I don't know why.

Oooh yum :) I don't care for root beer now, but when I was a kid those frosty mugs were the best! But mostly I remember those burgers: Papa, Mama, Teen and Baby.

Hmmmmmmm, A&W seems to taste better when you hate your life/boss, while Barqs tastes better when you love your new job.
Tough one.

Barq's is the most distinct root beer I've tasted. Not the best, but I could pick Barq's out of a root beer lineup. It is quite good though, and I'd probably take that over A&W, although I like them both.
HOWEVER, IBC, BITCHES! FTW!

I like A&W better unless I want the caffeine that Barq's has.
A&W doesn't have caffeine if I remember right. If it does, it isn't as much.

Barq's is the only root beer that I know of that has caffeine.

You are correct.

:lol it would take about 10 cans of Barq's to get the caffeine hit of one cup of coffee.
I don't think that they make it, or at least I've never seen it but I'd bet that a bottle of Barqs would be better than A&W, IBC, and MUG.
There's one I like though that they sell at HEB that comes in a bottle, in fact I was just out tonight looking for one but they only seem to have it at certain stores, and I can't even remember the name, lol.

You can get Barq's in bottles in New Orleans.

For straight up drinking, I like A & W. Just sweet enough but not over-powering.
For floats, gotta go with Barq's. Not as sweet and it doesn't over-power the vanilla ice-cream taste.
Didn't vote. Love both of them.
