This microbrewery serves a variety of beer as well as their root beer. It was doing quite an "after work" business when I stopped by.
Review
Served with ice, ouch. Rooty, medicinal nose gave me high hopes, which were dashed as soon as I tasted this astringent stuff. Harsh bite, bitter taste, and a bitter aftertaste. No tasteable sweetness to mitigate the harsh bite. This was no fun to drink. If you are in Everett and need a root beer, Scuttlebutt's nearby is a much better bet.
