root beer floats...in water

so a recent discussion with some friends led me to the conclusion that i have been misled my whole life. whether it was my mistake or i was just not listening, i realized that i was always slamming down root beer without knowing the proper name. you know, the famous root beer in the silver cans? barqs root beer.

for some reason it always made sense to me to call it barg's root beer. whatever the reason, i was mistaken, and i am corrected. sorry barqs. sorry world.
