Vermont in the fall?

I'm thinking about taking the wife up to the New England area in November.
I thought we would fly into Boston and rent a car and spend some time at some B&B or hotels in Vermont. We'd like to hike, check out some good breweries, and restaurants, and take in the great weather as much as possible.
Any suggestions on where to go? Stay? See?

Not trying to be a jerk, but there's a New England thread just a couple posts down with much of the info you are looking for.

I'd try to do it earlier than November, or it's going to feel closer to winter than fall in the mountains.
Vermont is beautiful, can't recommend it enough. Some of the best breweries in the country to boot.
Areas to visit include Burlington, Stowe, and Woodstock.
Breweries are countless, but the big ones are:
Lawson's
Hill Farmstead
Alchemist
Von Trapp

Lived in Vermont in the latter-half of high school (several years back) and my parents stuck around until 2015.
I think you're better staying in Burlington and driving to places like Stowe, Middlebury, etc.
Burlington is the quintessential college town. Lines Lake Champlain with terrific views of the Adirondacks. One of the best sunsets you will see. To the east is Mt. Mansfield and Camels Hump. If in Burlington, take a stroll up Church Street. Many college towns have that "pedestrian mall" and this is it. Hen of the Wood is my favorite restaurant, though I would recommend the Waterbury (formerly home to Alchemist) location. There are many bars that line Church Street. I can't pick one that I would take over another, but Ake's Place is where I would go when coming home from college. Walk around the University of Vermont's campus. It's pretty terrific. If November, see if you can catch a Catamounts basketball game. Pretty good mid-major program.
ETA: Although fall is technically in November, it won't look like it, especially in the mountains.
