Espresso Martini Festival at ALH Hotels
This pub chain is hosting a week-long espresso martini festival at various venues around Melbourne to celebrate World Espresso Martini Day.
Overview
Usually when a festival dedicated to espresso martinis pops up, it takes over one place. Such boozy fests only tend to run for a day or so, or a weekend, too. But one of Australia's big hospitality chains is ditching both of those norms, because this drink needs a whole week and more than 200 pubs countrywide to truly get buzzing. Who needs sleep when there's caffeinated cocktails to sip and celebrate?
The event: ALH Hotels' Espresso Martini Festival, which'll take over venues in a heap of states including Victoria from Monday, March 13–Sunday, March 19. If you're wondering why, the reason is the same that most food- or drink-themed fests pop up. Yes, there's an occasion dedicated to the beverage in question, with World Espresso Martini Day upon us on Wednesday, March 15.
For the week around the espresso martini-fuelled date, ALH Hotels will pour $14 Grey Goose espresso martinis no matter what time you drop by. Fancy a pick-me-up over lunch? After-work bevvies with your colleagues? A cruisy weekend session giving you some extra perk? They're all options — just don't expect to be tired afterwards.
Among the venues taking part in Victoria, Melburnians can hit up Young and Jacksons, Moreland Hotel, Elsternwick Hotel, The Croxton and Balaclava Hotel.
