Dors: Day 8
The Winelands came calling, and we answered.
The target: Wild Clover Brewery in Stellenbosch. What a magnificent day to not only film the brewery and the magical little town itself, but also to build up a "groot Dors" for a cold one. Or two.

Dors: Day 6
The theme for Episode 6 is contract brewing - as a result the crew followed the brand's origin and roots and partook in some of the associated cultural experiences.

No doubt, they enjoyed a lively adventure, along with a good old "Shisa Nyama" and cold beers at Mzoli's.

Can definitely vouch for this one....

California Steam is strong in all aspects especially taste. The recipe comes from days gone by in California, before refrigeration, when beer was made in wooden kegs and stored underground to keep cool.

The Beer Route - What we do.

The Beer Route. What more can we say?

Like most business, The Beer Route started out of a passion for Craft Beer and the beautiful nature of all the people that make it. We have never come across a better bunch of people, all striving for quality of both liquid and experience, and not shy to lend a hand to others, trying to achieve the same.

All of that said, The Beer Route is committed to reward both brewers and drinkers by bringing them together in a natural and fun way, while at the same time introducing people to the world of quality and authenticity. Yes, it’s a Beer tour, but it’s also not one; it’s an experience. You get to taste and enjoy Beer, while learning from the brewers and other interesting characters that make them. And of course, get home safely.

Much like wine, there are so many varieties of Beer, with us though, you will get to experience all of this without the pretense and need for fancy words like terroir, bouquet and of course, Tannins.....
