The Cape Town Beer Route is a rich half-day journey through Cape Town beer culture and stories, from traditional African beer brewing history and techniques, through emerging craft beer culture right through to mainstream beer production and mega-scale.



We begin with a tour of the Newlands Brewery, the oldest commercial brewery in South Africa. We explore brewing history and style in the original buildings, before touring the modern production line. We end this part of the experience with a tasting of the brewery's beers, which are some of Cape Town's favourites.

Then we move on to Cape Town's craft beer headquarters, the Banana Jam Cafe, to taste and discover Cape Town's artisan beers, from the city's four micro-breweries. We will taste their beers and hear their stories.Finally, we go to the beginning. Beer was originally brewed by women, and they were revered for this skill. For the third and final part of the Cape Town Beer Route we visit a lady brewing traditional African beer, at home, in the ancient handmade way. We see the process, and taste in the traditional way.

We return home having sipped, swallowed and celebrated the city's rich and flavoursome beer stories.
