RHODE ISLAND — Rhode Island might be the only state where it's actually possible to visit every craft brewery in a single week, and the Rhode Island Brewer's Guild is challenging beer enthusiasts to do just that.

This week is Rhode Island Craft Beer Week. With more than 35 breweries participating, the guild designed the week to shine a bright spotlight on all the craft beers made throughout the Ocean State.

From March 5 through March 13, there will be loads of events, contests and deals for beer-lovers to enjoy while they hit their favorite local spots for a good pint. And one of those events is a contest to see who can visit the most breweries in the state.
