Covid–19 Update
The Governor enacted an Executive Order effective March 17,
all non-critical retail businesses shall cease in person operations.
We are allowed to operate via curbside pickup.
The latest Phase 3 update was extended to October 28,
keeping gatherings at 15 people,
now we are back down to 10.
If I were to open the doors, there would be a sign in book,
a shield between the customer and cashier,
and only three locations inside,
which can seat a total of 3 to 10 people max.
There is nothing left to sell,
thanks to all I have met along this journey!
What's In A Name?
You may ask how I came up with the name for this business. Community is where one or a group resides, and a Bruin is a bear, usually brown. Thanks to our New England dialect, where we pahk the cah in the Havahd yahd, I decided to have a little fun with a play on words and start brewin’ some “beah”. Since bare, bear and beer are all pronounced the same, just like hair, hare and here, I decided to go with it. So that is what’s in the name!
Community Bruin Company is smallest Nano-brewery in the smallest state in the US having a capacity of a one half barrel. The plan is to be small enough to experiment with some 5 gallon homebrew sized batches of beer to sample in the tasting room, as well as increase the volume to a more marketable sized half barrel of production so customers may purchase some beer to go.
Now that we are open, we sell our craft beer for 3 hours on Fridays from 4 PM to 7 PM and Saturdays from 1-4 PM (tap room temporarily closed until further notice).
We had our first beer class program on July 17th, an intro to home brewing. Our second class was held on September 18 featuring upgrades to the home brewing process. The 3rd beer class touched on the Beer Judge Certification Program, and how beer is evaluated.
We're located at 74 Nooseneck Hill Rd., West Greenwich, RI.
