Heineken 0.0 is the perfect choice — crisp, refreshing, and alcohol-free, so I can stay hydrated and keep my energy up. Of course, I’m not too picky — any cold, refreshing beer will do! Whether it's a non-South African beer like Heineken, or even any of the great local craft brews, as long as it’s got that cool, crisp kick, I’m all in. Here’s to enjoying the view with a drink in hand and a smile on my face!” CAITLYNN LOWTHER “If I had to pick my go-to beer after a great CrossFit class or a long hike, or even an hour of playing padel, I would say a Devils Peak Lager: it tastes like a swim in the ocean on a hot summer’s day. It is crisp, clean and refreshing and it ticks all the lager boxes. Oh, and I also love a Heineken Silver!” MARVEL MUTSHINA “After a tough game or a hard training session, there’s nothing quite like cracking open a cold, refreshing beer— usually Castle Lite if I want to take big, long sips, or an Amber Weiss when I want to take it slow. It’s the ideal way to take a moment, relax, and really enjoy that well-earned feeling of accomplishment. There’s just something about that first sip that makes all the effort worth it, letting you fully soak in that post-workout high.” NIK AFFAT “After running the Cape Town marathon recently, I treated myself to a delicious Born Slippy lager from Woodstock Brewery. I mean, it has to be an ice-cold lager – you know that this is the only right answer!” To get the conversation started, we asked our readers: “What is your go-to beer after a challenging big game, training session, cycle, hike, race, or any other form of fitness you enjoy?” FORTHIS ISSUE, WEDECIDEDTOEXPLORE THE RATHER SIGNIFICANT!
