Taste Test: Our Test Kitchen’s Best Root Beer Picks
Root beer, a classic American beverage, has been a favorite for generations. Our test kitchen recently conducted a comprehensive taste test to determine the best root beers on the market. Here are our top picks:
- A&W Root Beer: Known for its creamy texture and balanced sweetness.
- Barq’s: Offers a unique bite with a hint of caffeine.
- Sprecher: Craft-brewed with honey for a rich, complex flavor.
- IBC: Smooth and full-bodied with a nostalgic taste.
- Boylan: A craft option with a strong sassafras flavor.
Our testers evaluated each brand based on flavor complexity, carbonation, and overall enjoyment. A&W emerged as the crowd favorite, striking the perfect balance between sweetness and traditional root beer flavor.
