Welcome to Cork & Brew, Cranston, Rhode Island’s premier destination for fine wines, craft beers, and exceptional spirits. Under the dedicated ownership of Al Sinclair since April 2018, Cork & Brew has continued to thrive, providing an unparalleled shopping experience for both enthusiasts and casual buyers alike.
Our Story
Cork & Brew has a rich history in Cranston, and its legacy was further enhanced when Al Sinclair took over the store in 2018. Al, a passionate connoisseur with a deep appreciation for quality beverages, purchased the store with a vision to create a welcoming environment where customers could find a diverse selection of the best wines, beers, and spirits from around the world. Since the ownership change, the store has never looked better, with a grand ribbon-cutting ceremony held on July 27, 2018, where Mayor Allan Fung welcomed Al to the Cranston community.
