This, everything else is a distant 3rd

With a note that Virgil's Bavarian nutmeg rootbeer is top three but is just too expensive and hard to get a hold of.

You put Shasta on and leave Virgil's off?

4/19/15 11:34am

Either way though, HW is my favorite.

4/19/15 11:35am

Friend of mine did a blind test with friends. Shasta came in top 3.

Overrated. It's good, but nothing special

Agree. It is good, not the best one listed. Overrated. Put it in a Shasta can

Virgils and bundabergs are light years better than 90% of your list

4/19/15 11:56am

But you've heard of my list, right? The reason I put "better" and not "best."

rainorsnow

4/19/15 11:58am

Bundabergs is one of the worst I've ever tasted.

4/19/15 12:04pm

Yep its horrendous ... their other sodas are good. Not root beer though

Ebolarama

4/19/15 12:39pm

Bundaburgs is what I'm sure kangaroo urine would tastelike. Horrible.

I'll add that Dads is only good with a Costco hot dog.

4/19/15 11:59am

A&W is great if you get it straight from the tap at one of their restaurants.

This is the correct answer.

Even better in a chilled mug

Do yourself a favor and try MadDog Root Beer

I'm new to CB so this poll is shocking to me...seems we have some novice brew

HarlemCoug

4/19/15 4:57pm

Sprechers is my choice as well

Heinz57

The poll is not asking for the BEST root beer.

rainorsnow

4/20/15 7:04am

It's a better topic than your poll though

thebruce

4/20/15 7:10am

When you add an "other" column your poll becomes a pick the best question
