Married couple and Cart/Horse Founders Jessica Lemmon and John Fetzner are all about both traditional and experimental spirits, and this unique Root Digger Artisan Root Beer, a “nicely designed liqueur,” is a perfect example of the latter. Made with real birch and sarsaparilla, this interesting liquid delivers an expected “punch of root beer” on the nose, which combines with aromas of “pumpkin pie and fruit cake.” Root Digger’s “interesting recipe of botanicals” results in a “pleasant balance of sweetness and herbaceousness” that would “rock in a boozy root beer float.”
