Any good quality 1/2" drive breaker bar will be fine. Most of my tools are Snap-on, but in general the professional tools sold off tool trucks all have fantastic quality, ie, Snap-on, MAC, Matco, and Cornwell. Close behind are S-K, Williams, Proto and Armstrong. Craftsman is a big step down, and most of their items are being converted to Chicom manufacture.
Although I own only Snap-on breaker bars right now, my favorite breaker bar of all is a NLA item made by MAC Tools. It has a round half-sphere style swivel head, as opposed to the normal "Y" shape. Ultra strong design. Very nice item...you can find one second hand on eBay, like this one:
