Cheers to That: A Night of Books and Beers

  • Talk
  • Events

Come together for a night of great Australian books matched with great Australian beers, in a special event presented in partnership with Tough Guy Book Club.

Craft beer meets the art of storytelling in a special event celebrating books, brews and the good conversations that flow from both.

Join a crew of fellow booklovers for an entertaining evening that pairs classic Australian novels (plus a few lesser-known gems) with perfectly matched beers. Whet your appetite with an introduction to each book and beer pairing, delve into the story behind each match, then take the opportunity to mingle and enjoy some lively conversation.

Your ticket includes five rounds of half-pots of beer (or non-alcoholic beverage). Event strictly for adults aged 18 and over. All are welcome regardless of gender identity.

Presented in partnership with Tough Guy Book Club.
