Phantom Farms Brewing is a craft brewery that opened in Cumberland, Rhode Island in March 2024. It…read morewas founded by entrepreneur Jason Macari and his son-in-law Jay Neveu. Macari first worked for toy manufacturer Hasbro before launching a custom cabinetry business with another former Hasbro colleague. Today he is involved in multiple businesses. For a new venture, Macari decided to open his own brewery with Neveu, another former Hasbro employee. The partners acquired and completely renovated the circa 1872 Berkeley Mill boiler room building to house the brewery. They named it "Phantom Farms" after the Macari family's local apple orchard and bakery just down the road. Oscar Garrido and Andrea Riera, a husband-and-wife team from Chile, were hired as the head brewers. Since opening, Phantom Farms has become known for its farm-to-pint operation, its close connection to its namesake orchard, a historic taproom, and award-winning lagers. I recently visited Phantom Farms Brewing while I was in town for the day. I was scheduled to meet up with some other beer bloggers. The first thing I noticed was how beautiful the restored historic building was. There was plenty of space upstairs and downstairs, indoors and outdoors, and the brewery is also family-friendly. After exploring all of the various rooms, I looked over the draught menu. There was an eclectic mix of beer styles as well as hard cider crafted with apples from the Phantom Farms Orchard. Between mingling with the other bloggers and playing some games of Biñho, I enjoyed pours of "Half Dark" (Czech Amber Lager), "Elegant Viking" (New England IPA), "Alternate Continuum" (Barrel-Aged Saison), and "Hypernova" (Barleywine). I was very impressed with everything that I tried, especially the last two. Between an excellent roster of beers, a beautiful historic space, and some excellent company, I had a really enjoyable experience at Phantom Farms and I highly recommend them to any craft beer aficionados who are visiting the area!

Visit Phantom Farms Brewery for the first time last night! It was trivia night indoors but we had…read moreour dog with us so we sat outside. There was a food truck set up which was great and plenty of options inside. The service was quick and we enjoyed the space overall! I was thrown off that this is not, in fact, located at the actual Phantom Farms, but that's totally on me! It was still a nice spot to stop into.

The taproom…read moreis cozy and seems like a great place to meet friends or congregate as a group if you're a local or regular. I went to order the spiked Mango Seltzer (not a flavor option you see often, I was happy to see this!), but then saw a bottle of lavender syrup next to where she was grabbing to mango and asked if I could get a lavender seltzer instead. I'm a bit of a lavender addict so whenever I see it, I NEED to get it. The bartender warned it could be a little light, but I went ahead with ordering it anyway. It was delicious! The color was light but the flavor was not. I was surprised to learn they have a full food menu here. I had already eaten but got to pick some yummy crispy fries from my friend's plate, and they were delicious. Lots of seasonal St. Patrick's Day options were available, which added a nice festive flair. Bathrooms were clean and easy to find, and I loved the "furry friends of Bravo" bulletin board with pet pictures to gaze at. I didn't get to visit for a super long time, but enjoyed the experience I did have.

First time here. Cool setting, it has some outdoor seating and a good amount of indoor. There is a…read moregood beer selection- no stouts though. I went with the dark Czech lager. Malty, easy to drink, had some good backbone. They carry other beer on tap that they don't brew as well, so you will have something you like, I'm sure. The chicken sandwich was pretty sad. My chicken was paper thin and it was very bland. Bun to meat ratio was off. No sauce or any kind of aioli to add some depth and moisture. Nonetheless, it's a good spot to hang with some friends if you have any that live in the area. You go and order at the bar and they will give you a number so it's a counter service spot.

The flight is the perfect way to mix and match to find your go to pint for the evening. The staff are funny, engaging, and super kind, and the owners are some of the most down to earth, kind hearted folks I've met. PS - the live music was AMAZING and they have board games you can play too! If you get hungry there's always a local food truck standing by! My recommendations? Ms. American Pie (with sugar rim!) and the Ode to The Cranberries!

It happened to be the Millbury Chain of Lights so the taproom was bustling with festive families.

Unfortunately, we have basically stopped going. With young kids, who are well behaved but active, most of the staff at CR complains about the kids and reprimands them if they're not sitting still the entire time. They advertise as "family friendly" but they're quite the opposite. It's frustrating to go to CR with a group only to feel unwelcome because our kids are having fun. They allow dogs to jump up and put their feet on the bar and lick it, and I even once saw a dog pee on the floor, but they roll their eyes when kids walk in? We are frequent brewery patrons with large groups, and we have never been made to feel unwelcome like we do at clover road, so we'll continue to take our business elsewhere.
