A menu of roast chicken can be paired with alcoholic beverages, all home delivered, if trials from Red Rooster prove successful.

Between now and the end of the year, selected Red Rooster restaurants in Victoria have been chosen to try out a new addition to the company's delivery channels for customers who order food as well.

Selected beverages such as Carlton Draught, James Squire One Fifty Lashes Pale Ale, James Squire Orchard Crush Apple Cider, Bundaberg Rum & Cola, Woodstock Bourbon & Cola, UDL Vodka Lemon Lime & Soda, Rosemount Diamond Label Chardonnay, Brown Brothers 1889 Sauvignon Blanc, Rosemount Diamond Label Pinot Noir, Brown Brothers 1889 Shiraz and Chandon Non Vintage are all on the menu when paired with food.

Australian-owned and operated for over 45 years, Red Rooster is hoping to roll out the availability of alcohol via delivery to other states and restaurants following the conclusion of the trial.
