Kitchen Takeover: Bush to Brew

This event has passed Get tickets

Event description

Get your game on! Kitchen Takeover have teamed up with cicerone extraordinaires Brewbus to bring you our first ever ‘bush to brewery’ experience. Join us for a lazy long lunch (12-2.30pm) or delectable dinner (5.30-8pm) over Father’s Day weekend on Saturday 4th and Sunday 5th September. Hosted at a secret Tauranga brewery location, you will get to experience a menu that intertwines the bounty of the bush with the brews of the Bay.

Meet the maker as our Master Brewer talks you through four unique and delicious beers, alongside a feast-style menu full of hunted game. Cooked on an Argentine asado style BBQ, each course will deliver foraged and fire roasted flavours that will make you cry “Ale yeah”! 

This event will be hosted amongst the fermenters at a bespoke brewery which is opening its doors especially for us for the weekend. Diners will be seated communally to share a brew with like minded foodies. Based on our ‘bush to brew' theme, this event is for wild-at-heart carnivores only who enjoy a crafty or two (or three, or four). We won't be offering any alternative dietary requirements for this event so if meat isn’t your flavour, keep an eye out for our events with herbivore options. 

The price of this event is $169 (plus a small booking fee) and includes four beers matched with an amuse, starter, feast style main course and dessert, all in a secret brewery location, 10 minutes from Tauranga CBD. There is the option for either lunch or dinner.
