We have done many beer-specific routes throughout the last year’s editions, but for this one, since September is SA Tourism Month, it seemed only appropriate to focus on a couple of holiday hubs and the beer on offer in these regions. The school holidays are also around the corner, and if tourism statistics are to be believed, it is likely you will find yourself in one of these two places. I hope you get to see a few of the spots below. In this edition, Craig Claassen showcases the beer routes available in two of South Africa’s most famous holiday spots. ontapmag.co.za | Spring 2023 | 51
