Rhode Trip: LineSider Brewing Company

 (The next part in a multi-part series as we complete the Rhode Island Brewer’s Guild Passport. To learn more about the passport and download the app click HERE).


This weekend we were able to get to one of THE hidden gems in the Rhode Island Craft Beer community, LineSider Brewing Company. Founded in 2018 they are one of the new kids on the block, however many of their offerings can go toe to toe with the top tier Rhode Island Breweries. Located a little off the beaten path in East Greenwich with a small outdoor patio as well as multiple indoor tables as well. Moreover, they are also pouring flights and allowing dogs in their outdoor area.


The outdoor area is reminiscent of drinking on your friend’s backyard porch complete with two cornhole sets, while the indoor area is more similar to his man cave, complete with televisions and Patriots gear (for those who do not know, LineSider is owned in part by former Patriots’ Guard Dan Koppen). The indoor area also has ample tables and a great view of the brewery as well.


My flight consisted of ‘The Craft’, ‘Shelter In Place’, ‘Only In Darkness Can You See The Stars’, and ‘Wicked Taht’. While all were great the two standouts were ‘The Craft’ and ‘Only In Darkness Can You See The Stars’. ‘The Craft’ which is named after a phenomenal documentary about Rhode Island Craft Beer is a hazy double IPA with a great mouthfeel and amazing flavor. While ‘Only In Darkness Can You See The Stars’ is a rye IPA with a nice crispness and a great bite from the rye. If you have not been to LineSider then you need to make a trip there, if you have not been recently, get back.

LineSider Brewing Company is located at 1485 South County Trail, Suite #201. East Greenwich, RI 02818. For more information about the brewery and their beer please click HERE.
