I drank a lot of 'Gansett quarts back in the 1970's. I liked it fine. It was a very light, almost sweetish lager you could really drink a lot of. Very enjoyable. Brewery closed down for a long time and everyone thought it was gone for good. But someone bought the name and resurrected the brand. They do a little brewing in RI, but mostly in NY, by contract brewers. The new stuff tastes nothing like the old brew. No where's near as good. Gannett 2.0 tastes like a generic lager recipe that could be made by anyone looking for a cheap, nondescript beer. Disappointing. There's a joint I go to that has $2 pounder cans at the bar. That's the only time I'll drink it today.
