I enjoyed our little trip to the Newport craft brewing tap room, which was nicely decorated for the holidays. It was somewhat busy but not too crazy busy for a Saturday afternoon (probably because the brewery itself isn’t really in walking distance from the downtown area) It was refreshing to not have to fight for tables or swim through a crowd of people to order a beer at the bar. There was a decent variety of beer on tap and I enjoyed everything I tried with their amber ale being my favorite. Prices were pretty reasonable and my partner enjoyed the whiskey so much, we ended up purchasing a bottle to take home with us. We would definitely return when we are back in Newport.
