Hands down the best root beer brand out of all of them. Everything else sucks by comparison. Mug and A&W can't hold a candle to barqs

A&W right from the fountain in them frosty mugs is pretty dang good but you are correct — Barq’s is the king

Yea it’s weird - some of the natural fancy root beers like Maine root or IBC are really good. But frankly I find I really like barqs. Like…the modern one which TIL is owned by Coca Cola. I don’t think I’m old enough or grew up in the right area to know the old recipe. There’s just a certain crispness to it that Makes mug or A&W seem slightly flat to me.
