    I'll add a caveat to this. They split their allotment between the 3 days, but they are open Friday 12-8, versus 3 hrs the other days, so cans tend to go early that day. But lines are nothing like they were a few years ago - chalk it up to increased production on their part and a lot more breweries in Rhode Island

    Plus the stupid state limit. The RI government is terrible at their job.

    They're great at accepting money from the distro lobby and liquor store owners looking to restrict brewery limits, though.

    I’ve wanted to but I have an impressive streak of scheduling conflicts going on...

    I’m sure they throw a great event, the location is an awesome spot to hang at. Looking forward to the new brewery breaking ground

    Have they discussed plans for expansion? I'm pretty surprised the place basically hasn't changed at all since I started going a few years ago.

    Between the handful of recent brewery closures, and an entire thread devoted to neipa's sitting too long on shelves, if they are doing alright, why mess with that? They never seemed to me like a group bent on dominating the market.

    The only expansion they've ever done was improving the barn to accommodate the current tasting room and bigger brew house, that was about two years ago now.

    The current plan is to build a slightly bigger brewery and taproom up on the hill at the front of the property that looks down on the hop vines. I don't think they're getting to over zealous with it, just trying to create a more comfortable space with a little room to grow and increase the distance between the business and their house.

    My friend is looking for an extra ticket to Saturday's event. Is there a good Facebook page or something to find one?

    Search “tilted barn traders” on FB. It is a closed group but easy to join. Not a ton of activity but might be a good place to find one.

    Looking forward for the event. TB has always been a destination everytime I get to Rhody.
