    • Battle of the Breweries - Round 3
      • First held in 2021 at the Hop garden the Battle of the breweries involved several breweries such as Parrotdog, Boneface, Deep creek and Tuatara. It was an event not to be missed each time, with some of the brewery teams attending the event offering all of you beer geeks the opportunity to have a chat about what’s brewing in the background. The battle of the breweries was a fun way to get everyone together in a relax and playful environment. So we thought it was time to do it again! Three battles down, one more to go before the semi-final. Who is going to join Abandoned Brewery, Double Vision brewing and Rhyme x Reasons brewery. This time, we’re travelling to the beautiful Kapiti coast with Duncan’s brewing company and North End brewing. Duncan’s brewing company is close to our heart at Smoked & Pickled, in 2021 we started our adventure at the front of the brewery on Sheffield Street, Paraparaumu. Duncan’s always delivers the most creative brews (who doesn’t like their ice cream sours?) always pushing the boundaries between beers and the world of international alcoholic beverage. Their core range is also a delight, ask Craig, our chef, who is addicted to their ‘Yum Yum’ Yuzu lager. On the other hand, North End brewing loves the old-world style beers, they know how to master the traditional/ancestral brewing method with flair. Their seasonal beers are always surprising and delicious with distinct personality. Once again, you cannot pass by their core range, Alice at Smoked & Pickled has been an unconditional fan of ‘Become the Ocean’ Gose. Which one will be your favourite? Will you be able to guess what brewery is behind those delectable brews? Each brewery will put forward 2 different styles of beers for you to blind test. Score cards will be handed to you to score your tasting and the winner will be announced the day after on our social media. The winning brewery will go to the semi finale next year. Some epic merch will also be up for grabs! Keep an eye on the back of your score card! Kicking off at 5pm on the December the 7th at Vogelmorn Bowling Club - this is another battle you won't want to miss! Tasty kai & local drinks will be available from Smoked and Pickled and UPSTAIRS from 3pm - 10pm. Vogelmorn Bowling Club is not a wheelchair accessible space.

    • Mali Mali - Spirit Tide Album Release
      • Get your tickets here To celebrate the release of his fifth full-length album Spirit Tide, Auckland based experimental/folk singer-songwriter Mali Mali is playing an intimate one-off solo show at Wellington's cozy Vogelmorn Bowling club with support from Pōneke songwriter and Home Alone Label- mate Timothy Blackman. Mali Mali (Ben Tolich) had always felt a warm connection with the far north. With Spirit Tide he was captivated by the region’s overarching spirituality and the traditional Māori stories about souls travelling up the coast of Cape Reinga towards the afterlife. In a sense, this relationship between landscape and feeling helped set the scene for the songs that followed. This is existential anxiety moulded into unique and idiosyncratic songs which conform to no particular genre beyond downbeat, thoughtful and experimental indie.folk. Mali Mali has developed into one of our unique voices and this album is a lure into his distinctive and singular world. - Graham Reid / Elsewhere Timothy Blackman is an underground recording legend. His most recent album Brightest Days is an alternative collection of sincere, candid storytelling. Raw genuine lyrics flow like a musical storybook. Balm for a bruised soul. From one track to another, slightly haunting but also strangely comforting acoustic instrumentation glides along in a laid back but “emotionally direct” fashion. —— Vogelmorn Upstairs is not a wheelchair accessible building.

      • The battle of the breweries is back! First held in 2021 at the Hop garden the Battle of the breweries involved several breweries such as Parrotdog, Boneface, Deep creek and Tuatara. It was an event not to be missed each time, with the brewery teams attending the event offering all of you beers geek the opportunity to have a chat about what’s brewing in the background. The battle of the breweries was a fun way to get everyone together in a relax and playful environment. So we thought it was time to do it again! For our first return battle we thought we'd take it right back to the start... and bring back the first two contestants ever involved in the Battle of the Breweries - Mean Doses and Abandoned! Come along and decide whether Mean doses can claim redemption & take back the winner's title or if Abandoned can hold tight in first place. Get ready for one ferocious battle! Each brewery will put forward their best IPA and Hazy to compete and it will be up to YOU to decide which is your favourite. Score cards will be handed to you and the winner will be announced the day after. The brewery will then go to the next round of the competition. As an added bonus, we'll have some treats up for grabs! Keep an eye on the back of your score card for the chance to win some epic merch. Kicking off at 5pm on the September 7th at Vogelmorn Bowling Club - this is a battle you won't want to miss! Tasty kai & local drinks will be available from Smoked and Pickled and UPSTAIRS from 3pm - 10pm. Vogelmorn Bowling Club is not a wheelchair accessible space.
