Which is the best root beer out there............

[TC4]

Okay, I am a big root beer fan, and there are so many out there, that I thought it would be interseting to see what kinda people like, or if they like it at all

I love Barq's root beer myself. It has a VERY good taste. Plus, it makes you belch right down to the tips of your toes too

But what does everyone else think.

..........and for those of you who this to poll totally blows............


...............SAME TO YOU!!!!

AWESOME poll! You just don't get root beer at all here, and it makes me miserable.

For my money, the best root beer out there is Henry Weinhard's. Smooth taste, great head (!), crisp finish. And a bad-ass bottle.

Of the major ones, I'm an IBC fan. Expensive, but the glass bottle is what puts it over the top.

while i'm a fan of all of the above, mugs has always been my personal favorite. dunno why. childhood memories that i've long since forgotten? i have heard good things about weinhards. he (they) make good beer too...

I gotta go with the IBC

[panel]

Barq's sucks, I hate it.

[Skeletor The Invincible]

I've always perferred A&W.

[big z]

I'd choose Barq's. It's a coke product with bite.

A&W, or should I say diet A&W, I had the unfortunate opportunity to taste....bleh....tasted like pepto bismol.

I like IBC myself.


BTWwhat's the deal with Birch Beer?

[Zen-like Todd]

One more for IBC.

[GrapeApe]

Ah, love Birch Beer. I haven't had it in years.

I like all of them. For a diet soda, A&W diet rootbeer is pretty good. At least tolerable for a diet drink.

[GrapeApe]

I must like Pepto Bismol.

Those of you from the Northern Virginia area have probably heard of Dominion Ale and Lager. They also make an exceptional root beer. Best part is the brewery is about 10 seconds from Redskins park. They have a restuarant and brewpub up front, with the brewery in back. Free tours on Sat with 2 free beers and all the pretzels you can eat.

Did I mention that the root beer is great.

[Zen-like Todd]

Ahh... also right off the W&OD trail, for drunken bike excursions, or AOL employees who run off to get toasted during lunch.

I have had the Dominion Root Beer. It may be the best I have had.

I have seen it sold in Colonial Williamsburg under a different label. Just wish I could find it easier in Richmond.

I love A&W diet rootbeer...
IBC is awsome too.
