IBC is delicious. Dog N Suds is pretty good, too.

I love the Sprecher's Root Beer. Nice and smooth. There cream ales are also very good.

Point Premium Root Beer from the Stevens Point Brewery is pretty darned tasty. (http://www.pointbeer.com/root_beer.php) And Curly's Pub in the Lambeau Field Atrium serves a good root beer, too.

I will put my vote out for Hires. But that is pretty much impossible to find anymore. So I will settle for A&W.
As for the creaminess, I remember learning somewhere along the way that the lower the carbonation levels the creamier the flavor/texture. So if you have a re-sealable container you can increase the creaminess of your sample
