BRIAN’S 100 BEST ’19: ROOT BEER BEER at EVIL TWIN BREWING NYC

I’m counting down the 100 best dishes I tasted in 2019…

Evil Twin is doing some really wacky things with beer and this was by far my favorite concoction. Many major brewers have put out things called Hard Root Beer. This is something totally different: an actual Root Beer beer.  It smelled unmistakably like the soft drink but had a lot more going on when sipped. This was actually a sour beer and had a tart finish underneath the sweet herbal notes of sarsaparilla. Wacky and amazing!
