GREAT PUMPKIN FESTIVAL @ CAMBRIDGE BREWING COMPANY

Think of this pumpkin beer/food event as the biggest pumpkin in the patch, with a whopping 40 pumpkin beers ripe for picking. They’ll have everything from the likes of  Jack’s Abby’s Pumpkin Crop Lager to Elysian’s Headless Horsey, a pumpkin Brett beer, to Hill Farmstead’s Autumn Saison, proving that even the most pumpkin-adverse of beer geeks will be present. Complementing the beer lineup will be a pumpkin-inspired menu from Executive Chef David Drew, a pumpkin processional, and costumes, of course.

[Sat 10.27.12. 1 Kendall Sq., Cambridge. 1pm-12:30am/21+/$10 admission, beer and food tickers 4 for $5. @CambridgeBrewer. cambridgebrewing.com]
