If you can find A&W in the actual *GLASS* (that is very important) bottle, it is by far the best root beer known to man. A&W in plastic bottles and cans is terrible. Glass bottle only.


Otherwise, stick with IBC. You can find it most anywhere, and it's pretty good.

Yeah IBC for sure after its been in the freezer almost to the point of frozen.
There is a little old fashioned drive up place here in my town thats serves homemade rootbeer that is even better,you can even buy it by the gallon. The girls come out to your car and serve you,pretty cool but the food is not so great.

Virgil's > All

You can actually taste each individual spice or seasoning used and the texture is a little bit syrupy.

I like Stewart's. A&W used to be my favorite as a kid, but I know it's not a great root beer. Never had Jones. Barq's is okay.
