The Makers' Table Degustation with Sirromet
Community events
Three Makers. Two Crafts. One Table.
Join us for the first event in our inaugural island Makers' Table series – an intimate evening where exceptional food, remarkable wine and Island Crafted beer come together in conversation.
Hosted on the rooftop of Straddie Brewing Co. overlooking Moreton Bay, each Makers' Table welcomes a celebrated guest Maker to collaborate with our own team of artisans.
For this inaugural island event, we're delighted to welcome Jessica Ferguson, Chief Winemaker at Sirromet Wines, alongside our Head Brewer Andrew Sydes. Chef Alex Stapleton has created an exclusive four-course seasonal degustation, with every dish thoughtfully paired twice – once with a Sirromet wine selected by Jessica and once with an Island Crafted Straddie beer chosen by Andrew.
Throughout the evening, Alex, Jessica and Andrew will share the inspiration behind each course and pairing, inviting guests into a conversation about flavour, craftsmanship and the stories that shape every glass.
Your Evening includes:…
