Welcome To Barq's Root Beer
All beginning in 1871, Barq's Root Beer founder Edward Charles Edmond Barq Sr. was born to French parents in the lively city of New Orleans. By 1920-1924, Prohibition began in the United States which made the sale of root beer shoot to the sky. Edward Barq reportedly exclaimed out loud, "Hot diggity dog!" as this root beer surged in popularity. Soon, sugar-free Barq's Root Beer and eventually Diet Root Beer were launched. By the 1990s, Barq's territory stretched coast to coast and supplied 440 markets and millions of happy customers. This icy bite of Barq's Root Beer taste is here to stay.
