Your favorite brewery that isn't in Providence or the few I've already visited?

Best Rhode island brewery?
I'm passing through Providence this Saturday and have time for one brewery stop. I overheard from someone at Treehouse that Moniker is the best in the area. Any other option someone can recommend or is moniker the winner?

"Very unique taproom in an old historic New England mansion. Felt like I was stepping back in time. The decor was thoughtfully maintained while adding some brewery logos and fair.
The outdoor beer garden was relaxing, spacious, well maintained.
Overall one of my favorite taprooms I’ve been at. It is a hidden gem, in a part of Rhode Island that seems quiet. The beer is solid, nothing crazy, experimental, weird, just good solid beer."

"Grey Sail is one of my favorite breweries and is very near and dear to my heart. My wife and I wrote engagement letters to each other here two years ago, then got engaged at spray rock in Weekapaug. Such good memories here and always a great beer and beautiful sunlight in the evenings. Ho Hey is my favorite NEIPA"
Griffin Ingerson
