Big flavours. Local legends.

Saturdays are better with friends - and our friends at Rakau know how to bring the flavour!

Pairing their incredible bites with our Cargo beer flights is the ultimate weekend combo.

We’re looking for 12 locals to join us for a couple of complimentary “Make Your Own Gin” workshops at The Cargo Collective 🍸

Sessions:
Saturday 11th — 1 pm to 3 pm
Friday 17th — 2 pm to 4 pm

Tomorrow’s session will be our guinea pig round as we test out this brand-new experience — you’ll help us fine-tune it and share your valuable feedback.

The following Friday, things get a bit fancier! We’ll have a photographer (and the Mountain Scene crew) snapping pics while you craft your very own gin.

Both sessions include the full experience: choosing your botanicals, distilling your own gin, designing your own label, and heading home with your very creation.

Keen to join in? Drop us a line at [email protected] — spots are limited and it’s 18+ only!
