Free Keg of Whalers for Every Bar and Restaurant in RI Restaurant and bar owners in Rhode Island can ask their Horizon Beverages sales rep for a free keg. May 18, 2021 Rhode Island reopening is cause for celebration and the crew at Whalers Brewing Company certainly knows how to make a good time better! Today, the beloved microbrewery announced that all restaurants and bars in Rhode Island who request it will receive a free keg of Rise, the award-winning American Pale Ale. “Bars and restaurants across the state put us on the map,” say Josh Dunlap and Wes Staschke, the founders and head brewers of Whalers, in a press release. “They helped take us from the smallest brewery in Rhode Island to the largest, and after a tough year for all Rhode Islanders, we figured what better way to say thank you and help ring in summer than free beer?”
