Halloween is finally here! Well, technically, it’s not here until Monday, but if a holiday the magnitude of Halloween falls on a Monday, it becomes the province of the entire preceding weekend. This year, Peaks and Pints will be treat-or-treating with a pillowcase, loading it with craft beer from local breweries. Speaking of local breweries, several have Halloween prefunk parties tonight. Here are a few South Sound brewery happenings:
