Hops & Hoppers 2026: Sri Lankan Streat Eating Tour, First friday of each month! Hops & Hoppers is back in 2026, and weโ€™re kicking things off on Friday 6 February with a pairing we genuinely love โ€” Sri Lankan food and Mornington Peninsula Pinot Gris.โ  โ  Join us as we explore outstanding Mornington Peninsula Pinot Gris from Quealy, Stonier, Ocean Eight, Polperro, and Even Keel, and see how these wines dance with the flavours coming off the grill.โ  โ  On the menu, a deliciously smoky Lankan seafood barbecue. Think fresh fish cooked in banana leaf, along with prawns, octopus, scallops, punchy sambols, lacy hoppers, and fragrant curries.โ  โ  On the bar, itโ€™s a deep dive into Mornington Peninsula Pinot Gris โ€” whether youโ€™re already converted or just curious.โ  โ  Most excitingly, itโ€™s a rare chance to relax and chat with the winemakers themselves: Kathleen Quealy (crowned the โ€œQueen of Pinot Grisโ€ by James Halliday for her pioneering work at Tโ€™Gallant in the 1990s), and her son Tom McCarthy (Quealy Winemakers), Aaron Drummond (Stonier Wines), Sam Coverdale (Polperro and Even Keel Wines), together with Mike Aylward (Ocean Eight), who both led the charge in promoting the pairing of Mornington Peninsula Pinot Gris with South-East Asian cuisine many years ago.โ  โ  And it wouldnโ€™t be Hops & Hoppers without a little hops โ€” our refreshing rice lager will be pouring, alongside cocktails to round out the offering.โ  โ  No tickets. No RSVP.โ  Just drop in between 5โ€“8pm.โ  All food and drinks are ordered and charged on consumption at menu prices.
