For those suffering from Cenosillicaphobia (the fear of an empty glass), a visit to Matjiesfontein should cause no further distress!

Whether it’s a ‘cold one’, ‘brewski’, ‘dop’ or ‘Vitamin B(eer)’ you’re looking for, Matjiesfontein should help quench that thirst by introducing its very own craft brew.

Here is the story behind the beer:
Partnering with Kennel Breweries, an award-winning nanobrewery based in Durbanville, Cape Town, the brief was to develop an easy drinking draft that would go down well in the heat of a Karoo summer (it’s already earned the stamp of approval). Thus was born the Matjiesfontein Lager – a pale, crisp draft that is malt forward, with medium head retention.

We love the specially designed cans that Kennel Breweries made for us – they’re easy to transport or to bring along on a hike, and beer stays fresher for longer in cans than in glass. As the saying goes, “beauty is in the eye of the beer-holder.”
