Boo 'n' Brew

Arbeiter Brewing Company is hosting Boo 'n' Brew on Sunday, October 25, from 12 PM to 4 PM. It's a free, family-friendly afternoon presented with Half Pint Co., and the whole thing is built around pumpkin decorating. If you've got kids, that's the main draw: pumpkins to carve and paint, face painting, and a bubble machine running. There's also a bouncy castle for the little ones to burn off some energy while you hang out.

It's not just for the kids, though. A live DJ will be spinning throughout the afternoon, and there's kid-friendly karaoke for anyone who wants to grab the mic. They'll be handing out treats while supplies last, and both children and adults are encouraged to come in costume, so it's a good excuse to get the whole family dressed up for a few hours. If you're more of a spectator, you can just watch the chaos unfold with a beer in hand.

For a bit of context on the spot, Arbeiter Brewing Company is a tap room and craft brewery in the Longfellow neighborhood of Minneapolis. They run regular events, food trucks, and trivia nights, and they welcome children and dogs into the tap room and the outdoor seating area, so it's a place that's already set up for families and pets. Boo 'n' Brew fits right into that—a low-pressure Sunday afternoon where you can bring the kids, let them decorate a pumpkin, and still enjoy a drink yourself.

It all goes down on Sunday, October 25, from 12 PM to 4 PM at Arbeiter Brewing Company, 3038 Minnehaha Ave., Minneapolis, MN 55406. Entry is free.
