Crane Bar & Lounge

Kick off Melbourne Gin Festival weekend with an exclusive Forty Spotted Gin tasting at Crane Bar & Lounge. Join us from 4pm–7pm on Friday, February 27th for a guided tasting showcasing the distinctive character of this celebrated Tasmanian distillery.

Guests are invited to enjoy a complimentary tasting of Forty Spotted’s Classic, Pepperberry, and Pinot Noir gins. To enhance the experience, the signature botanicals will be on hand — offering a chance to see, touch, and smell the ingredients that define each expression.

This special pre-festival event is the perfect opportunity to sample what’s pouring across the weekend and discover what’s to come. Following the tasting, guests are welcome to continue the celebration by ordering our signature Forty Spotted gin cocktail at the bar and sip through the evening.

A refined way to toast the start of Melbourne Gin Festival weekend.
