    Hi! Do you want to know more about the rich history of A&W Root Beer? For instead, what's the origin of the name? How did A&W become very popular? Let us find the answer!
    In 1919, at a parade honoring returning World War I veterans in Lodi, California, Roy Allen was set up a roadside drink stand to sell a new thick and creamy drink. That was.........root beer! Thanks to God, his creation was success. Then he decided to take a partner. His name is Frank Wright.
     In 1922, Allen and Wright was decided to create their own brand. They gave the name for their beverage, A&W Root Beer.
     Allen never waste his time when he was opening his first permanent root beer stand in Lodi, then  followed by a second one in Sacramento. It featured the first "drive-in" concept with "tray-boys" for curbside service. Then, in 1924,  Allen was bought out Wright to pursue a franchising program, which became America's first franchised restaurant chain. He sold A&W Root Beer concentrate exclusively to these franchises to ensure the quality of the product.
      In 1933, there are more than 170 outlets were franchised. During World War II, A&W Root Beer was stands increased in number, was despite government sugar rationing. After the war finished, there are more than 450 franchises were open, driven by the popularity of the automobile and the new mobile society.
      In 1950, Roy Allen was retired. He was sold the business to Gene Hurtz. In 1963, Mr. Hurtz sold the A&W Root Beer Company to the J. Hungerford Smith Company. More ownership changes took place during the 60s and 70s, but the only place you could get A&W Root Beer was on tap at an A&W Restaurant. But, however, Americans wanted to enjoy it at home, too.
      In 1971, they were able to do just that. A&W cans and bottles were an instant hit when they were first introduced and it was sell in Arizona and California. Then, in 1974, A&W Sugar-Free was born. In 1986, A&W Cream Soda and A&W Diet Cream Soda were introduced and distributed nationally. Then in 1987, Sugar-Free A&W was reformulated as Diet A&W.
In the March 1995 acquisition of Dr Pepper/Seven-Up Companies, Inc., by Cadbury Schweppes plc, of London, A&W became part of the renamed Dr Pepper/Seven Up, Inc. Today, regular and Diet A&W Root Beer are the number one root beers in all measurable channels. A&W Cream Soda is the top branded cream soda.
      Much has changed since Roy Allen first sold root beer on that summer day in 1919, but the one thing that never change is the rich, smooth taste of A&W Root Beer.
