Barqs is boring. There's nothing redeeming about this drink that makes it any better than any other root beer I've ever tasted. If you the best Root Beer don't bother. Lady Lee from Lucky's is no longer made anymore. Though it looked like a generic brand. It was by far the greatest Root Beer I've ever had.

It's OK, but I'd rather have A&W. They're right in that it has bite, but I'd rather it didn't.

Barq's Root Beer is not only my favorite root beer, it is my favorite soda, period. It has that great root beer flavor, and a notorious bite. I'd reach for that silver can before any other. Great stuff.

Excellent. Used to drink root beer as a kid but then I went off of it. Tried Barq's in the Navy and was won over. Classic root beer taste but smooooooooth...

The one that bites is correct. Hardly qualifies as root beer at all...has a 'grassy' type of taste that is difficult to stomach.

I rather enjoy the bite this root beer has. Good by itself or as a float, on a par with A&W. About the only ones better are the more expensive bottled in glass root beers like IBC. :)

Very good in a can or fountain. I'd rather swallow my own barf before drinking this from a plasitc bottle though. I give it four stars for that reason alone; otherwise it would have been a five. Definately my favorite common RootBeer. not as good as the premium glass bottled rootbeers though.

Barq's is my beer of choice for many reasons. One is because of it's contrast to A&W. I grew up drinking A&W, and when Barq's moved west in 1990, I had my first taste and have been drinking nothing but Barq's since. Visit my Barq's website: www.thebarqsman.com or my blog: www.barqs.blogspot.com

Barq's is unique! No messy foam, but better than normal root beer taste. Some argue that is why it is not root beer. However, when I was a kid, sitting on my grandmother's front steps drinking a cold Barq's straight from the (glass) bottle was a treat! Now, if only I could find Pop Rouge for sale in the mid-west.....

Barqs has bite...not exactly an endearing quality in root beer, the caffeine makes no difference. Wether it comes out of a bottle or can it tastes like liquid aluminum, not very good anyways. The Red Cream Soda is ok though.

Barq's root beer is ok, as long as it is very very cold, and there is no A@W around....:) Also, Barq's has caffeine in it, but I think this might give it a unique taste. Not bad...

Barq's Root Beer is by far the best GD drink eva!!!!!! Raincat . . . shut your mouth!!! Nobody likes you anyway!!! The phrase "Root Beer . . . It's Good!" is simple and to the point. The person who came up with this slogan must be a frickin' genius and should be applauded!!! Root beer has helped me through many tough times in my life, and I wanna thank the makers of Barq's Root Beer for makin a drink that lets me know that life will go on. And always remember . . . It's Good!!!

I don't mind the flavor of Barq's but hey, if I want caffeine, I'll drink a Coke or Pepsi. Diet Barq's doesn't have the caffeine, however, and is an acceptable choice for an ordinary root beer. I do slightly prefer A&W, both regular and diet, but Barq's beats that crap called Mug any day. If you want really good root beer, however, spring for the extra dinero to get a premium like Thomas Kemper or IBC.

Barq's has a good root beer taste to it. Sometimes our family gets in a mood for a Root beer float. ad we usually buy Barqs or A&W. Root beer is a nice change of pace when I get tired of a cola product, or lemon lime type drink.I would recommend Barq's rootbeer to someone.

I don't know if it's the caffiene that makes this root beer so much better than A&W, or something else... whatever it is, you haven't had REAL root beer until you've tried this stuff! Barq's DOES have bite! Or they have something... and I love that something it does have!

Growing up I hated root beer. Recently though I tasted Barq's and love it! Usually root beer is very sweet, Barq's though is just right. Barq's goes great with pizza.

I love root beer. Barq's is the only root beer I'll drink. It has that flavor that is rich but not thick and smooth but not watery. I also think the can looks cool because it looks like a beer can.
