Rhode Island Craft Beer Week is set to kick off with a bang as we gear up for a 10-day celebration from March 1st to March 10th. The festivities will not only unfold at the Providence Taproom but will also extend to bars and stores across Rhode Island. From Lager CON, paying homage to their flagship brew, to unique releases, collaborations, and even a charity variety show, the Craft Beer Week promises a diverse and immersive experience for all craft beer aficionados.
The highlight of Saturday, March 2nd, is the much-anticipated Lager CON. This full-day celebration is dedicated to Narragansett's iconic Lager, featuring activities such as Lager Cask Tapping, Lager Flights, Stone Path Malt Tabling, and exclusive Lager-focused tours. The week continues with exciting events, including the release of Hanley's Cask on Sunday, RI CBW Trivia on Monday, and the Gansett & Crook Point Relay Run on Wednesday, providing participants with the perfect blend of exercise and beer enjoyment. As the week unfolds, beer enthusiasts can look forward to unique releases like Tockhaus Lager, a collaboration beer with Pink Boots Society, and the ISCO Aquavit Barrel Aged Lager, culminating in a vibrant Irish Dance Class on the final day, Sunday, March 10th.
We've meticulously crafted a schedule that not only showcases our passion for brewing but also encapsulates the spirit of Rhode Island Craft Beer Week, making it a must-attend event for beer connoisseurs in the region. With special releases, interactive activities, and neighborly collaborations with other breweries, this celebration promises to be a delightful and memorable experience for all who partake in the festivities.
