What makes Boos & Brews special? It blends the best parts of a progressive tasting with a costume party. You’ll wander the Town Center, sampling tasty treats and refreshing beverages (yes, there are brews) while swapping compliments with pirates, witches, and at least one inflatable dinosaur. It’s social, snackable, and delightfully photogenic.
Costumes are encouraged—which is half the fun. Think “comfortable statement”: you’ll be walking, noshing, and toasting, so pick footwear you can flaunt and survive. Capes are aerodynamic, masks are optional, and a little glitter never hurt anyone (maybe warn your plus-one).

What it is (and isn’t):
• Boos & Brews is the Halloween reception version of Tastes of EDH Town Center—food-forward, sip-happy, and costume-loving.
• It’s distinct from the El Dorado Hills Art, Beer & Wine Festival and the El Dorado Hills Brewfest—those are separate annual events in the same Town Center calendar.

Pro Tips
• Arrive early to catch golden-hour photos by the fountain.
• Share plates so you can try more tastes.
• Bring ID if you plan to sample alcoholic beverages.
• Charge your phone—you’ll want pics of the décor and the costume parade that spontaneously happens everywhere.
If your October checklist reads “eat well, drink well, look fabulous,” then Boos & Brews is your signature move. See you under the string lights—save us a sip and a cinnamon-dusted something.

Sharpen those spooky skills Super Owl Brewing is hosting its annual Pumpkin Carving Contest on Wednesday, October 29, 2025 at 1260 Lake Blvd #121, Davis. It’s a carve-and-chill kind of night: doors at 4:00 pm, event window 4:30–8:30 pm, and carving kicks off around 5:00 pm so you’ve got plenty of time to plan your masterpiece.

Here’s the treat: Super Owl provides everything—pumpkins, carving tools, and candy. You bring the vibes (and maybe a steady hand). It’s all ages, in person, free parking, and a full four hours of festive chaos. Expect friendly smack talk, lots of scooping, and a showcase of wildly creative gourds—from classic jack-o’-lantern grins to intricate scene carving that’ll make you say, “That’s a pumpkin?!”

Why it slaps (like a pumpkin on a cutting board):
• Zero prep: No grocery scramble; your pumpkin and tools are waiting.
• Prizes: Carve the most boo-tiful pumpkin and score bragging rights (and goodies).
• Brewery backdrop: Sip something seasonal while you sculpt—optional, recommended.
• Kid-friendly: It’s all ages, so bring the crew.
