Downtown Providence is experiencing a renaissance of its historic brewing scene- join us for a walking tasting tour of Providence's local libations, including delicious beer and spirits produced right here in Rhode Island's capital city.

Between tastings, learn about the incredible history of Rhode Island prohibition in a state that never ratified the Prohibition amendment. Immigrant-rich Providence found it a little too difficult to part with its Old World drinking cultures, despite what the Feds had decided was "moral." From the zealous coalition who brought it to Congress, to liquor loopholes, to famous bootleggers and undercover agents and corrupt officials, Providence's Prohibition history is rich with characters and culture you won't find anywhere else.

Completely enjoyed our tour, learning more about prohibition (did not realize it lasted over a decade), visiting several terrific establishments for adult beverages and walking around Providence. Great way to spend an afternoon!

We enjoyed the tour and our guide was very, very knowledgeable. The walking length was just over a mile, over easy terrain, and there were comfortable stops, where we could sit, along the way. We were a small group of just four adults. We feel that it could be a better tour by making the website easier to find with complete explanations. We chose to Uber and it was a good decision as we started at the Hotel Providence(who didn't know that a tour was meeting there!) and ended in another part of town at Plant City. It would have been at least another mile to get back to where we started. We enjoyed the pretzel and the chicken sandwich, but we had no food with the wine tasting. In fact, we had three different wines poured into the same glass! No rinsing of our glasses or clean glass offered. We also found the vegetaran (mushroom) pizza to be unsatisfactory. I am temporarily on crutches and had to be careful of uneven surfaces and cracks in the sidewalk. Otherwise, I kept up. However, our guide chose to walk and talk with the other couple while my husband and I walked without his expertise.
