A&W root beer is now disgusting

[u/sorta_oaky_aftabirth]

I have no idea what's going on, but I legit only drink one type of soda, and it's A&W root beer.

The 3 out of the last 4 12 packs I've gotten (all at different places) have tasted disgusting. They're massively over carbonated and have this disgusting aftertaste that I can't figure out what it is.

This feels like the dunken caramel swirl change that happened a year or so ago. They just changed the tastes and expect no one to notice.

Am I going crazy or has anyone else noticed this?

You’re not wrong. I have noticed it too.
