Ah, I do have a potty mouth. But the fact that you read the title of this article and still clicked on it suggests that you don't mind, so let me expand... Next weekend (Aug 24 & 25) it is the fourth Beer Boot Camp, being held in Gauteng. I've come across a...
It is perhaps no secret to those that know me, or regularly follow my ramblings, that I am not the beer world's biggest NEIPA fan. I tend to like my IPAs bitter and crisp and don't generally find New England IPAs to be particularly thirst quenching. Also, in South...

Here it is at last folks - the first in a series of six videos featuring brewdays and general jolling. Each beer is inspired by a karaoke classic. First up, we brewed an American rye wine at Drifter, inspired by Don McLean's American Pie. The beer - a 9 percenter...
It all began in a tiny pub in Greyton. I love singing. Can't say I'm particularly great at it. I don't think I'd make the joke reel on X Factor, but I certainly wouldn't be getting any golden tickets either. I do love a bit of karaoke though and after an epic night...
