Do you love Underberg? Would you put Underberg in your food? Would you marry Underberg?

Each $30 ticket entitles you to:
1 Underberg Lemon Curd Bar
1 Underberg Marshmallow S'Mores

1 Underberg Ice Cream Root Beer Float

You can come to this event without a ticket! The ticket provides you four unique desserts to eat for yourself or share amongst your friends.

We'll be serving normal Underberg at $2 a bottle.

Food sessions start at 12pm and at 2pm. You can come at any time! Your food is only served within that two hours to prevent everyone coming en-masse for food. You will be given a punch card for all four desserts so you don't have to get them all at once.
