Big Ben was the champion of the day at the wrestling event at proclamation
Jack B.

What can I say an amazing time at proclamation brewery, the beer selection is absolutely amazing, we went to a amateur wrestling event. They were putting on on a Sunday afternoon. The place was sold out, and they had a food truck out front so there was plenty of food and beer available, it was an amazing time. I highly recommend proclamation.

Large selection of beers and plenty of room, reasonable prices. They have a few video games, pinball machine, and what looked like a tabletop shuffle board. Food truck was awesome. Large portions including plenty of fries. Fast and friendly food truck owner. Down side; dogs and kids allowed. I'm an older guy and don't think it's a good idea, but breweries have to do what they can to survive. There is also a patio area. Plenty of parking because it's located in an industrial park. Good selection of different beer styles so there's something for everyone.

One of my favorite brewery in Rhode Island! Love coming here and it never disappoints. Staff are very friendly, atmosphere is super chill. There's some free arcade and it's pup friendly on the patio! There's always something happening at Proc, check out their social media or website for foodtruck on site to grab a bite! If the food truck is not your thing, you can always bring your own food while enjoying their ice cold beer! This is a great place to connect with some friends and have a great time! If you're in the area, definitely stop by. If you're lucky, you'll even catch a beautiful sunset.

THE brewery spot for family and friends in Warwick, RI. Enjoy the free retro arcade gaming, food trucks, car shows, drag shows and various other events they have. Service has always been and still is great! Plus, the beer is always on point!

Made a unplanned stop here after walking at buttonwoods park - glad I did. Really cool atmosphere and the beer was very good. I got an ale with strawberries and rhubarb called "Pie Chart" ($8). It was smooth and refreshing. My mom got an oatmeal milk stout called "Broze" which was amazing. ($6) Great flavor. Most of their drafts are only $6 which is such a great price nowadays for a 12 oz pour. Friendly staff and I'll be back for those prices alone!

Derivative, a single hop Citra IPA.
Alden C.

We had one beer from Proclamation as that was only what time and opportunity allowed but I felt lucky to try the one. Derivative was the name of the beer we had with this brewery experience, a single hop Citra IPA that we had. The beer was alright and refreshing enough but not necessarily the most memorable as far as this style goes. Perhaps going in a different direction with the beer options would have been the way to go to have had more of a memorable beer.

Proclamation Ale Company is a craft brewery that opened in West Kingston, Rhode Island in February 2014. It was founded by Dave Witham. A musician by trade, Witham originally taught lessons at private schools as well as for individuals. After getting into homebrewing, he had a dream of opening his own brewery with the purpose of providing delicious and exciting beer to a local market that was sick and tired of amber ales. Proclamation originally opened in a small space in West Kingston that was just shy of 2,000-square-feet and had a small 3-barrel brew system. The brewery quickly took off and soon outgrew its space. A larger 15,000-square-foot brewery with a 30-barrel system opened in Warwick in December 2017. Witham sadly passed away three years later after a battle with cancer. His widow Lori is now the owner of the brewery and she (along with the amazing staff) are continuing to keep his vision and legacy alive. My son and I recently visited Proclamation after we went on a long bike ride on the nearby Washington Secondary Bike Path. I've heard excellent things about the brewery for some time. They have a huge taproom with a small collection of vintage arcade cabinets and a large outdoor patio area. The brewery has a rotating schedule of food trucks, but they also have a snack cart set up (in partnership with Cranston-based Saugy Franks) where customers can buy gourmet hotdogs and other snacks. They had an excellent selection of different beer styles on draught during my visit. I decided to order short pours of "Tendril" (New England IPA), "Stalk" (Double New England IPA) and "(In)Significance" (Triple New England IPA). I loved them all; each beer was better than the previous one! I'm so happy that so many great craft breweries have been popping up in Rhode Island in recent years and Proclamation is no exception! I'll definitely be back!

A great RI brewery! Always a large tap list with something for everyone. Great selection of sours and IPAs. Cans are always available for purchase. The brewery has a very large space. Even when super busy, there is always a spot for everyone. They have long tables, four tops, and some two tops around the brewery. It's crowded but walkable on the weekends. On the wall, they have a huge projector display of movies that play. Movies range from animated to live action. I believe they use Netflix for movies. Each week they have rotating food trucks. You are also available to bring in your own food. Overall, a great place to visit!

Great selection of beers at Proclamation Ale. They aren't offering flights right now, but have full and half pours available. My favorite was the Ooooh Plumberries, and my husband's was the Middle Tooth. They let you buy mixed 4-packs to go which was a good option! They take their Covid protocols seriously; everything was very cleaned between visitors, and socially distanced! Picnic tables outside were perfect!

Came here for a food truck event-I'm not much of a beer drinker, so didn't think I would like anything-- And I had my 11 year old with me. Thankfully they had other options of drinks while we waited for our food..... They were also nice enough to let us try samples to see if there was a bear that I would like. Definitely worth the trip with an array of options to choose from..

Really cool! Nice and open. A little hard to find but the signs point you in the right direction. A food cart had set up shop inside which was cool, they post a line up online. Also a projection screen was playing, you couldn't really see it or hear it but I'm sure it's cool at night. Good beer selection, yummy. Helpful staff. Would def Update: checked this place out again last night but the variety lacked! No sours or fruit beers (girly beers) so there wasn't really anything I'd like. I did try the oak aged sauvon blanc beer but it was funky not in a good way. The sour double ipa was also too much for me. They should make sure to have the regular fruit beers or sweeter sours for the ladies! Variety is key

Ask the Community - Proclamation Ale

What the hell is the $6 in-house charge on a tab?

No such thing when we were there

Does Proclamation have gluten free beer available at the brewery?

Not that I've ever seen, and if any of it is it wasn't labeled so.

Do they put on the Patriots when the game is on?

I don't believe so. They have one projector that's usually showing older movies or cartoons. I don't believe I've ever seen a sports game on.

Can you bring non-proclamation growlers in to be filled?

Yes

I've had several of their beers and while they're all pretty solid, nothing has really blown me away. My favorite is the Juggernaut Double NEIPA. That's my GO TO when I'm here and probably the beer I'd recommend trying first. Overall, Apponaug is worth checking out. The beers are decent, but the location is what really makes this place stand out. Would I go out of my way just for the beer? Probably not. Would I come back to have a few beers along the river on a nice afternoon? Absolutely.

The last time I…read moregot a sour slushie beer in the summertime, and it was sweeter than other similar drinks I've had at other places - I loved it. These didn't seem available this time, so I ordered their Untapped-award-winning Peanut Butter & Jelly Sour - WHOAAAA! So delicious, and smelled and tasted exactly like the name, not a watered down faint whisper of peanut butter as many similar drinks have. I could see it being a little too sweet if you had more than two of these, but I loved it and wouldn't shut up about it, leading multiple friends to order one. This was unique and a must try, well worth its awards. My friend ordered a Bacon Maple beer that also smelled exactly like its name, but as a vegetarian I declined a sip since I wasn't sure if it had any real bacon in it. It was slammed and busy here, but our wait time at the bar wasn't too bad considering. The beertenders were pretty quick and friendly. Someone was throwing a birthday party and had a band playing, yet they were still open to the public. The acoustics in here are a little bizarre and echo-ey, so the band was unbearably loud. Luckily there were picnic tables and high top tables outside and it wasn't too chilly, so we headed out there. They brought out a few heat lamps which helped my friends that weren't dressed for the weather, and added a nice cozy atmosphere without any bonfire smoke smell. This would be a great area to hang for the fall! They had a food truck available which is always a great feature (Kroffle Kreations - I will review separately soon). There is a small parking lot that's been full every time I've come, but since it's in a far out industrial park area of town, people park on the sides of the road with seemingly no issues. Great little spot and very creative beers, with lots of events hosted! I'm looking forward to branching out into some of their other and darker styles of beer in the future.

The interior is nice and bright with a decent-sized bar and lots of tables. They had an excellent selection of beers, ales, and stouts. I generally stay away from this kind of place because they are IPA-heavy, and I am not an IPA fan. I had a couple of glasses of this fantastic stout and a great Scottish Ale. My wife had a peanut butter Porter that was yummy. The servers behind the bar were great. They also had a food truck that offered salads and sandwiches. My understanding is that they have a variety of food trucks that rotate through. We had an excellent time listening to music, being with friends, and having some great beverages. I would give this place a try.

Once I ordered my soda I took in the ambiance of the bar, new lights, and the rest of the restaurant. It's not a large building but they make every inch count. Now, the reason you're reading this review- THE FOOD. I ordered the Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich with a Caesar Salad. The chicken (photo below) was perfectly cooked, topped with hot honey, slaw, pickles, and ranch then placed on a soft brioche bun. The meal was reasonably priced as well at $33 which included tip. I will absolutely be back to the Shanty next time I'm in town.

The venue was a little loud and echo-y, and the educational talks were impossible to hear, but the place was filled with good energy. It would have been nice to have some tall tables to collect oneself/drink beer/snack, but I'm not sure where they would've gone... Smart moves: band outside singing "have your ID ready" ( both for entertainment value and practical purposes). The line was fairly sizable but moved quicker than I expected. Even the longest lines at the beer tables moved quickly, and having beer upstairs and downstairs was a good way to split up crowds.

I always like the special one off collaboration brews that you can only get at Beervana. The attending breweries always bring their A games & love showcasing their brews. There are beer festivals almost weekly but Beervana is definitely the premier one in New England if you ask me.
