Crooked Current Brewery

Crooked Current Brewery, the smallest brewery in the smallest state, is located just outside Providence in Pawtucket; they offer flights featuring five of their rotating beers starting at $7 per tasting glass or 8oz pour ($3-$5).

They have a great rotating selection of seasonal beers. They are very creative brewers and are excellent at naming their offerings. The idea of an extortion, eggnog milk stout makes my mouth water.
