Narragansett Beer

(Privately Held)

Founded in 1890, Narragansett Beer was one of the most popular brands in New England. After being bought by Falstaff Brewing Company in 1965, it closed in 1981. Despite this setback, the well-loved brand was destined to make its comeback. In early 2005, lifelong Rhode Islander Mark Hellendrung, along with a group of New England investors, purchased the rights to Narragansett Beer from Falstaff. Former Brewmaster Bill Anderson was brought on board to ensure the authenticity of the brew. Today, Narragansett Beer is quickly regaining popularity all across New England.
