South Africa's 'All-girl' Brewery

Oakes Brew House describes itself as South Africa's first "all-girl" brewery. For good reason. The beer is brewed by a young woman named Happy Sekanka who is originally from a township in South Africa’s northern Limpopo province .

We visited.


First we tasted. There were four different beers on tap that day. An Easy Blonde, an Ale, a Butt Stout and a Wise Beer.










we'll try one of each please!

Happy says she’s “in love” with the art of making beer. We are happy too.

(FYI They roast their own coffee too!)
