Wednesday Lowdown: Let’s Just Call it Pint Night
It’s pint night, apparently!
Your Humboldt Wednesday offers you multiple excuses to drink beer in 16 fluid ounce intervals. There’s a pair of Pints for Nonprofits nights at Mad River Brewery and Redwood Curtain Brewery (details in your Lowdown listings below). Then there’s also the cinematic curio that is the regular Sci-Fi Pint and Pizza Night up at the Arcata Theatre Lounge. This week the ATL screens the at-one-time-scary 13 Ghosts (1960). So, boo.
Ah! Look down! It’s the trailer!
