beer_and_bloating_in_brewsvegas

Set in the back streets of Fortitude Valley, Beer & Bloating in Brewsvegas is a tale of 3 Aussie breweries (us, Pirate Life and Mountain Goat) in a perilous journey of craft beer and A-class burgers. Ze Pickle was their destination. The party started with a collaboration beer from all four protagonists, with a unique burger for each, and ended with a spin on the Wheel of Beer Fortune. Their future was uncertain. Who would win the best prizes? Whose burger would reign supreme? Would they come out alive albeit really bloated? Book your ticket to see what happens. Ticket price includes one special brewery burger, one collab’ beer and one spin on the Wheel of Beer Fortune. Vegas, baby.

Where – Ze Pickle, 1 Prospect St Fortitude Valley

Time – 2pm Session & 5pm Session

Cost – $40 (Ticket price includes a special event burger, collab beer & a spin of the Wheel of Beer fortune)
