Taproot Brewing Company

909 E Main Rd, Middletown, RI 02842

Signature Beer:  F-Bomb IPA

Five-second Description:  This is actually inside the Newport Vineyard facility and it is hard to tell where the winery ends and the brewery begins.   Their IPAs have a little room to get better but are very admirable for a vineyard brewing beer.  The setting is fantastic you can enjoy your wine or beer flights in an outdoor area overlooking the vineyards

Why you should go: How many place can you get beer and wine made on the premises?  The wine is very good and the beer is worth the stop.

Food: Snacks are available or you can sit in their restaurant

Beer on Earth

425 West Fountain Street #104, Providence, Rhode Island 02903

Signature Beer:  ?

Five-second Description: This was one of the strangest locations I have ever been to. Drove by it twice because it is inside the Harvest Bread Company store.  And yes they are still selling Great Harvest Bread.  They have since moved to Providence, so I hope they have a better location.

Why you should go:  Good beer and hopefully a better taproom now.
