Do you need a drink or two to get through the terrifying time of year that is Halloween? These breweries understand that (as do I).

Carved at Lenny Boy Brewing Co.

What: A pumpkin carving contest, but not the kind that just anyone can participate in – Piedmont Culinary Guild is pitting some of Charlotte’s most talented chefs, farmers, mixologists, food artisans and educators against each other. Their creations will be voted on by attendees and the winner will receive a leather knife roll and apron. For those of us not elite enough to carve, there will be farming demonstrations, magic, caricatures, a silent auction and food.
When: October 30, 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. $18 for adults ($22 at the door), $5 for kids 11 and under. If your kid brings a pumpkin they carved themselves, they’ll get in free. Go.

Friends and Beerfest: Harvest Edition at Legion Brewing
