RIFC Pale Ale: Celebrating Inaugural Season with Craft Brew

Celebrate the Inaugural RIFC Season with RIFC Pale Ale

Introducing the Exciting RIFC Pale Ale

Can you say score? This past weekend, the Guild Brewing Company announced an exciting collaboration with Rhode Island Football Club to create a special limited beer release known as RIFC Pale Ale. Available in sixteen-ounce cans with an impressive five percent ABV, the American-style pale ale comes complete with a striking label designed by RIFC’s graphic designer, Carly Melton. You can find this refreshing beer at Beirne Stadium on match days, as well as at The Guild’s Warren and Pawtucket locations.

Perfect Match Day Brew

On match days, fans can indulge in this unique beer right at Beirne Stadium. RIFC Pale Ale will be the featured beer on $5 Beer Night when the club hosts defending USL Championship title winners, Phoenix Rising FC, for Champions Night. Limited tickets are available now at rhodeislandfc.com/tickets. This makes cheering for your team even more enjoyable with a refreshing, sessionable pale ale in hand.

Where to Find RIFC Pale Ale

If you’re craving the brew between matches, no worries! You can also pick up convenient four-packs at The Guild’s Pawtucket and Warren locations. Rhode Island’s largest craft beer company brewed this ale with the spirit of the club’s inaugural season in mind. This beer is described as having a soft mouthfeel, moderate bitterness, and a golden yellow color with moderate haze and a delightful tangerine/citrus aroma.

A Partnership Rooted in Community

“It was a natural fit to partner with The Guild for our first-ever co-branded product,” says Rhode Island FC Club President Brett Luy. “The Guild has always been community-centric and passionate about supporting Rhode Island FC. Alongside The Guild, we’re proud to offer the first RIFC Pale Ale to our fans.”

A Historical Collaboration

The organizations have a history of partnership and collaboration dating back to 2019. The Guild Pawtucket hosted an afterparty for the initial Tidewater Landing project announcement, followed by afterparties for the stadium’s groundbreaking and official brand launch in August and November 2022, respectively.

Looking Forward to the Future

“We’re really excited to partner with Rhode Island FC and create this unique collaboration to celebrate the inaugural RIFC season,” says Jeremy Duffy, Co-Founder and Managing Partner at the Guild Brewing Company. Fans are eagerly awaiting the chance to try the RIFC Pale Ale. Devin Kelly, also Co-Founder and Managing Partner at the Guild Brewing Company, adds, “By combining our dedication to brewing excellent craft beer and Rhode Island FC’s commitment to the Rhode Island community, we are excited to share this beer with the RIFC fan base.”
