13 Halloween Beers and Movies –
On Halloween we celebrate all things spooky. Traditionally, kids don costumes and masks and travel door-to-door in search of candy treats. For adults, Halloween often includes costume parties and watching scary movies. However, the year 2020 changed our perspective, including the need to wear masks all the time in public and maintain social distancing.
