Attendees can sample beverages from regional brewers and distillers, including Whalers Rhode Island, Grey Sail Brewing, Schooners Hard Ciders, Veritable Distillery, and South County Distillery.

Tasting mugs and five wooden nickels for samples will be available for $10.

Admission to the museum is required to attend, but no separate event ticket is needed.
