Chicken Scratch: Craft Beer Week

Rhode Island Craft Beer Week is egg-sactly what you need to shake off those winter doldrums. Grab your flock and head to one or all of these fabulous local breweries for a week of beer releases, tap takeovers and events like trivia nights, drag bingo and so much more. You can even start your St. Patrick's Day celebration early with Irish-themed events on March 16. And with double points for every passport check-in, you'll want to sample as many beers as you can. I recommend a flight. (Pun totally intended.)
