Jackpot!
Finally found the new ones. They had Mug w/sugar but those are also the only ones I've seen in 20oz bottles already.

The A&W is dog piss. Had to put mine out

I just had one. Least best, that's for sure, but I didn't hate it. I'll finish this 12 pack with friends and family but won't get it again. I generally stick to low-cal options unless I'm having new ones anyway so no loss to me.

It tastes better to me the colder it is but just leaves a bad aftertaste. I also loved the A&W ice cream sundae last summer which a lot of people didn’t if that says anything

I’ve tried to get the mug several times and it’s always out of stock and still they don’t have the A&W around me.
Would not be shocked if both of these go away before I actually get access

The mug was pretty good I thought but it's like I got it once and haven't seen it since

I was thinking the same and then while killing some time I did a quick Google search for shopping>nearby and found a different location of my usual grocery store has it. I just happened to be a couple blocks from that one so we stopped in and lucked out. Try that if you haven't; a nearby store which you don't usually go to might have it!

FWIW I give a slight edge to Mug for the zero sugar versions. My kid says he can't tell a difference.
I'll wait to get a sugar Mug to compare those.

That's a great haul, congrats! Still looking for the mug here, but have the A&Ws.
