Manhattan Hadn't Brewed Its Own Beer Since 1995. Two Guys With Confiscated Fake IDs Fixed That.
A finance trader and his oldest friend spent a decade trying to brew beer in the one New York borough that had given up on breweries. Then they opened during a pandemic - and had to reinvent the whole thing in a week.
Narragansett Brewing Company
Narragansett Brewing Company is New England's storied lager brand, founded in 1890 in Rhode Island and once the largest brewery in the region. After the brand nearly vanished in the early 2000s, Rhode Island native Mark Hellendrung and a group of local investors bought it back in 2005, rebuilt its reputation around the classic Lager and the 'Hi, Neighbor, have a Gansett!' slogan, and in 2021 finally brought brewing home to a new 18,000-square-foot brewery and taproom in Providence's Fox Point neighborhood. Today it is an independent craft brewer producing roughly 100,000 barrels a year.
