    Hi,

    Have a buddy headed to Providence next week. He is not on BA but he is looking for best local places to enjoy a pint. He is also looking for places to grab some bottles to bring back to FL. Is hill farmstead available? Any thing will help thanks.

    Ted

    Hill Farmstead bottles are only available at the brewery in Vermont, which is quite far from Providence. It is on tap at Armsby Abbey and the Dive Bar in Worcester, which is somewhat closer.

    Grey Sail and Proclamation are the RI breweries to look for.

    If your buddy has anything from Florida FT, shoot me a PM, I have HF bottles and live in Providence.

    Nikki's is a great bottle shop. Harry's Burger Bar on Federal Hill is a cool spot.

    I think you may have your hills mixed up. Harry's is just off of college hill on North Main.

    If you like crowds, this weekend on the Hill is the place for you! But seriously with Harry's and the nearby Federal Taphouse, nice to have some options for beer other than American/Italian macro and the occasional Sam Adams and Harpoon.
