Rhode Island Breweries & Distilleries
Step back to the 1770s, and you'd find Newport buzzing with the sweet scent of molasses. With 22 distilleries lining its bustling wharves, this colonial powerhouse earned its crown as the rum capital of the world.
Fast forward, and the Ocean State is experiencing another golden age of spirits. Nearly 40 breweries and distilleries now call Rhode Island home, with new ventures popping up yearly. These aren't your typical mass producers—they're passionate craftspeople wielding both time-honored techniques and cutting-edge innovation.
Take Sons of Liberty Beer & Spirits Co., which is leading a whiskey revolution from their South Kingstown headquarters, or the exciting collaboration between local powerhouses like Narragansett Beer. Together, these modern artisans are writing a new chapter in Rhode Island's centuries-old brewing and distilling story, proving that the smallest state still packs the biggest punch when it comes to craft beverages.
