Been going to the barn since around 2015 where you'd anxiously await the week's latest drop and happily wait in line to get your allotment. They've come a long way from those days and not always for the better. The newer taproom is well designed and amalgamates modern building with old school barn charm. They have many available draft beers inside and even an outdoor rail with about 6 taps. I went there recently to try a specific wet-hopped beer (it is harvest season after all) and tried to get it at the outdoor pour station but alas it was only available inside. Once inside an obnoxiously loud beer tender was yelling about how there is "no line outside" and that they have "everything out there that they have in here." He seemed pretty mad when nobody left the line to go outside and I was a little put off since I knew that they definitely did NOT have everything available outside. It was fairly busy as it was a really nice day so I grabbed a couple pours and headed upstairs since it was the only area with seats available. I grabbed the last table and when my son asked me for the wifi password I couldn't find it on the tap list menus at each table but remembered it was written downstairs on the draft board. I sent my well behaved, seasoned brewery veteran son downstairs to get the password. While in my line of sight the entire time, not running or disturbing anyone he was harshly spoken to by a staff member since he was unaccompanied. Little did they know I was watching it all go down. This is not the first time I have had staff speak abrasively to me or my family but it will definitely be the last. I was once yelled at for taking pics of the bright tanks/brewing area because I wasn't "seated" up in the balcony. The beers are ok, 90% hazy brews. I can see why as most of their farmhouses, lagers, stouts, sours aren't that good. They do brew a decent DDH DIPA, but it's pretty much available at most RI stores now. The scenery is excellent, complete with hop vines and farm animals. Unfortunately, the vibe is just off. These places are usually casual and laid back but this one is controlling and semi-hostile at times. I can only imagine the ignorant people and attitudes that the staff have to deal with each day to make them so angry about me taking pics or my son entering a password into a phone without having a parent hold his hand. They should probably take an extra 30 seconds to assess each individual before assuming we are ALL like those ignorant types. read more
