Got Beer? These Are the Breweries in Your Neighborhood: And in everyone else’s neighborhood, too

After decades of growth, craft beer in Rhode Island has reached a fever pitch event the wildest dreams of local beer enthusiasts couldn’t conjure. Whereas once we could count on one hand the number of breweries, including brewpubs, in our state, now it’s getting difficult to attempt to keep up with the new brewery openings.

So in light of the ever-growing and constantly expanding nature of the scene, this list may not be complete, but it is every RI brewery that I was able to find (find a few of these spots on our center spread).

This abbreviated list doesn’t even count the breweries currently in development, nor does it scratch the surface of the depth and breadth of brewing talent represented by all these wonderful institutions. There isn’t space or time enough to list all of the beers available by these wonderful alchemists, but my experience with the local brews emerging today is that every one of them is worth trying. If you find you’re unable to visit each one in person, our local liquor stores will certainly have at least some of them in stock.

If you make it your goal, as I have made it mine, to try every one, then I wish you luck and please be responsible out there while you embark on your delicious, hoppy, bubbly journey. Make your beer tour of little Rhody a good one.
