The beer scene in Rhode Island continues to grow and succeed, and we’re glad to shine a spotlight on these outstanding local businesses." said Matt Gray, President of Gray Matter Marketing.
This year's beer fest will be highlighted by the debut of Long Live Beer Works, a new brewery that is based in Providence.
