Good Beer Week Program Launch

Beer lovers unite! Good Beer Week 2014 is back, and the festivities kick off next week with the official Good Beer Week program launch. The Good Beer Gala Showcase will be held at Ormond Hall at The Village Melbourne on March 12 and 13 with brewers from across Australia there in person to share with you their newest, most exciting and favourite brews.

Tickets to the prelude event are $30 which includes 20 x 60ml tasting tokens as well as food tokens. The organisers are really showing the love to previous Good Beer Week attendees, offering the opportunity to use any leftover tokens from last as valid currency.

The Village Melbourne chefs will be on hand at the event, offering food and beer matching. Menu options haven’t been announced as yet, but we’re willing to bet they won’t disappoint.

Of course this is all in the lead up to the main event, Good Beer Week 2014 being held in May. With 200 events across 160 venues this event is sure to be one to celebrate.

So grab your diaries now and get ready to walk the red carpet at the Good Beer Gala Showcase if you don’t want to miss out on what will be two brilliant nights celebrating brewing excellence and the return of Australia’s biggest and best beer week.

Seasonal Delights: Consumption of Trends and Worlds Around Us

The Bowler Associates are hosting a stunning event as a part of the Melbourne Fashion Festival on Saturday 15th and 16th of March. The concept of the event involves Sarah Wilcock, leading Melbourne journalist and blogger selecting six fashion labels to offer up their favourite outfit of the season. The labels, including Melbourne favourite Limedop, Kathryn Beker, Chirinta Exie, Neo Dia, Tettmann.Doust and newcomer Aaizel offer up their garment to then be interpreted by artist and food designer Ryan Foote, into six unique food dishes.

Fashion stylist Emily Ward (The Age, Melbourne Fashion Festival, Royal Botanic Runway) will take the resulting dishes and use them a source of inspiration to direct all the hair, make-up and backdrops for a styled fashion shoot featuring all the garments.

And just when you think this event couldn’t get any more amazing, the photoshoot of styled food and modelled fashion will be shot by talented photographer Stu Morley (his clients include Chadstone, Viktoria + Woods, Mossimo and Leonard St) to be featured at the Seasonal Delights exhibition during VAMFF.

This is a fascinating concept, and a wonderful mix of art, fashion and food. The public exhibitions is being held at 1/24 Macquarie Street Prahran from 12-5pm on Saturday 15th and Sunday 16th of March. Admission is free.
