If you are looking for a little day trip to a beautiful oceanside town definitely check out Newburyport. I have not personally gone to this brewery, but let's be honest you can't go wrong with any of them. From our hotel it is less than 30 minutes away.
If you are big in Halloween and want to experience the true halloween vibe I would take a day trip and check out the history. You can enjoy visiting the house from Hocus Pocus as well as many other famous historical sites. It is only 15 minutes from the hotel. It will be prime time so my advise is to uber because parking will be tough.
