Sons of Liberty Launches Summer 2021 with Chair 2 Light Lager
Chair 2 Light Lager is a Rhode Island made beer with 95 calories and 2.5g carbs per can
Sons of Liberty Beer & Spirits Co. has announced the launch of Chair 2 Light Lager ahead of Memorial Day Weekend. Available in 12oz 6packs, the 4.3% light lager boasts just 95 calories and 2.5g carbs per can.
Named after the Chair 2 lifeguard chair on Narragansett Beach (the surfers hit the water nearby), the beer’s branding showcases a retro, surf vibe. The packaging coupled with the style of beer tells us this year-round offering will make sure summer never seems to end. “We’re really excited about this style and flavor,” said Bryan Ricard, Chair 2 Marketing Director. “There are a lot of Rhode Islanders taking advantage of all the beautiful outdoors this state has to offer – whether it’s surfing, hiking, kayaking, cycling, paddleboarding, snowboarding, you name it. Chair 2 is a clean, refreshing beer for those who just want to be out there.”
A clean and easy-drinking beer might be a refreshing change of pace for an industry that’s been inundated with options. “This beer is definitely for anyone who’s tired of the heavy double IPAs, the hazy New England IPAs or the super fruity sours,” President and Founder, Mike Reppucci, explained. “Don’t get me wrong, those beer styles can be truly amazing, but sometimes you just want to kick back with a traditional, light and crushable beer.” Chair 2 Light Lager is consistent with other light beers in regards to alcohol by volume, calories and carbs, but the team at Chair 2 made sure the flavor was on point. “It has character, for sure,” Reppucci proclaimed with said beer in hand.
The beer is brewed and packaged at Isle Brewers Guild (IBG) in Pawtucket, RI. “It’s not something we currently have the capacity to brew and package in-house ourselves,” Mike explained, “but it was important for us to keep this in Rhode Island and Isle has been an excellent partner.” IBG works with many well-established brands such as Narragansett and Night Shift.
Distribution of Chair 2 Light Lager has started and will be in Rhode Island liquor stores for Memorial Day weekend; SRP of $8.99 per 6-pack. The beer will also be available on tap in Rhode Island bars and restaurants starting in June. Participating locations can be found at https://www.chair2.com/chair-2-beer-finder
Cafe Serving Local Food to Benefit Underserved Teens Reopens June 1
Farm Fresh Rhode Island is excited to announce the reopening of its Harvest Kitchen Cafe in downtown Pawtucket after nearly a year of closure due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Beginning June 1, the cafe will be open for take-out or in-cafe dining weekdays 10am-3pm, with a new menu packed with options for a variety of dietary needs including vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free. The fare includes sandwiches made on house-baked breads, salads featuring freshly made Narragansett Creamery cheeses, New Harvest Coffee Roasters cold brew, from-scratch falafel, house-made vegan carrot bacon, plus house-made soups and sweets that rotate daily.
More than simply a cafe, Harvest Kitchen supports the local community by providing a welcoming environment with a nutritious menu in an urban neighborhood with limited options for fresh, locally sourced foods. Behind the scenes at the cafe is the Harvest Kitchen processing kitchen and culinary job training program for underserved teens — providing processing for local farms (think apples to applesauce) and hands-on learning in kitchen and life skills as well as internship/job placement assistance upon graduation for teens involved with the RI Department of Children, Youth, and Families.
“The past year has allowed our team to focus more fully on the youth in our culinary training program and the production of our retail items,” explained Sean Kontos, Harvest Kitchen Program Director. “Though our youth work on our retail line year-round for sale via the Market Mobile local food delivery service and at local farmers markets, they can’t wait to learn about the restaurant aspect of Harvest Kitchen by assisting in the cafe.”
Harvest Kitchen is also available to cater events: lunch, dinner, passed appetizers, and more. Choosing Harvest Kitchen—whether for catering, at the cafe, or at a farmers market—means supporting local farmers and food producers, as well as youth empowerment and involvement in the local food system.
The crew at Harvest Kitchen is excited to welcome new and returning customers starting June 1. For the protection of its youth program and staff, Harvest Kitchen will continue to require masks for all patrons when not seated at a table.

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 crisis many of Rhode Island’s restaurants are trying to promote their online ordering and take out, and even moving to take out only. This page will attempt to be updated regularly with links to their ordering page or menu and phone numbers when online isn’t available.
Resource Links for Small Businesses During COVID-19 Crisis including all federal, state & municipal funding options, plus health links.
Looking for local groceries, markets, food, drink, gift cards, apparel and all kinds of other merchandise?
Looking for locally brewed beer? We have a full update from RI Breweries right here.
Concerned about whether take out and delivery is safe during this pandemic? It is safe! Read all about it.
If you would like your restaurant to be added to this page, please send a message through our contact form. I’m happy to add ANYONE, just please send through the form so I don’t lose track of anyone.
Here’s some tips to ordering from your favorite restaurant:
- Check a restaurant’s Facebook page/Instagram/web site for updates. Things are very much in flux right now and they may have to stop, start or change hours on take out or delivery.
- Always try to order directly from a restaurant first, via phone or their own online ordering before using a 3rd party delivery service (unless they recommend you use the service).
- Buy a gift card. The restaurant gets the money now and you get to dine later for “free!” (Don’t think about it.)
- If a restaurant you love is closed completely, make sure you head in to eat when they open back up. These are hugely trying times for any small business and they’ll need sales.
- With that in mind, when you do dine-in again one day, tip well and tip often.
- Buy a gift card. They make great gifts!
- During this crisis restaurants are allowed to sell bottles & cans of wine & beer. Please support that as well.
- That’s not to say you shouldn’t support your small business liquor store either, though I’m thinking we’re all doing that as much as we can.
- Did I mention buy a gift card?
What’s Up Newp has got a page dedicated to places in Newport County, so rather than duplicate that, go check out their page.
Every restaurant in this list offers take out:
- A Take Out or Delivery link means you can order online.
- A phone number means click on the restaurant name to take you to their site where you can view the menu and call the restaurant take out or delivery.
The entire list is now in a sortable and searchable spreadsheet.

Screening: According to Phase 2 rules, guests will be screened upon their arrival.
Table Setup: The tables will be set up on the Shaidzon Beer Garden in the middle facing East to West (building to train tracks) and spaced 8 feet apart from table edge to table edge. There is an umbrella in the middle of the table. There will be a barrel on each end.
Walkways: Along the fence/train tracks side is for walking toward the tables from the ramp. Along the building is for walking toward the ramp. One barrel is for the Shaidzon bartender to drop off ordered items, and the other barrel is for the bartender to pick up items from the table. The barrels will also provide an additional distancing measure from the bartender to the guests.
Ordering Process: When settled at their reserved table, guests can order their beers by completing a provided beer form to give the quantities they would like of the beers available. The forms will be placed on the train tracks side barrel to be picked up by a Shaidzon bartender. The Shaidzon bartender will return with the beer and place it on the building side barrel.
Checking Out: When checking out, a Shaidzon bartender will take a single credit card from the table to cover the tab for the table. The booking fee will be discounted from the total amount of the tab. The card provider will inform the bartender of the tip amount they wish to give, and provide permission to proceed without a signature, so that guests do not touch the point of sale computer.
Bathrooms: Bathrooms will be portable restrooms outside. Guests must wear masks when using the restrooms.
Mask Wearing: According to the Phase 2 rules, people must wear masks as they enter/exit, are away from their table and when they are using the restroom.
