The Newport Beer Festival Returns With 40+ Vendors

Raise a glass to East Bay breweries at Fort Adams State Park

Posted

After hitting pause the past two years, the Rhode Island Brewers Guild is excited to bring back the Newport Beer Festival for its 10th year of pouring local craft beers for enthusiasts to drink in all our state’s craft brew scene has to offer.

With the exception of its name change – formerly the Newport Craft Beer Festival – and new location at Fort Adams State Park, festival director Taylor Votolato looks forward to this mainstay event mostly echoing years past. A ticket includes entry, samples from over 40 vendors, and a souvenir glass, with food available on site and live music backdropping the event. A “festival for brewers, by brewers,” guests can meet and mingle with the local maker behind their favorite brews and discover brands they’ve never tried before.

Along with breweries from across the state, find East Bay favorites including The General’s Crossing Brewhouse, Jamestown; The Guild Brewing Co., Warren and Pawtucket; Ragged Island Brewing Company, Portsmouth; Rejects Beer Co., Middletown; Six Pack Brewing, Bristol; Taproot Brewing Co., Middletown; and Twelve Guns Brewing, Bristol, with more being added to the list at press.

With a mission of championing all things craft beer in the Ocean State, the Rhode Island Brewers Guild works year round to set beer lovers on a course of broadening their hop horizons with the brewery passport and app for people to earn prizes for visiting local stops, along with seasonal events.
