About Us
Who We Are
The George Brewery and Distillery adds craft beer excellence to George in the Western Cape. We supply quality craft beer and other products to taste and flavour conscious people at our taste room and through local distributors.
Ivan Beukes, the brewer-owner has experience in the craft beer industry for more than twenty years and you will find something to satisfy your palette.
Our products are manufactured on-site; at our tasting room in the Tamsui Industrial area in George. You are invited to visit our taste room (by appointment or during the advertised open hours), and our products are also available at selected local restaurants and liquor stores.
"Local is lekker", we prefer local services and ingredients from our home town and surrounding area. We support and implement an environmentally friendly approach; recyclables (metal, glass and wood products) are used for packaging and distribution.
Heuningbos Blonde
This is a signature beer in our collection, a deep golden coloured blonde, infused with honeybush tea. Honey bush tea is a local endemic herb growing in this area in the mountains. Although tea and beer doesn’t sound right in the same sentence this is a match made in beer heaven. The subtle taste of honeybush tea round this beer off in a well balanced thirst-quencher and session beer.
IBU’s-17 ABV-4%
The George AMBER ALE
Another favourite in the brewhouse is the amber ale. Rich in colour it is also bold with fruity and caramel and flavours, finished of with a pleasant hoppy aroma. A definite must try.
IBU’s-27 ABV-4%
The George STOUT
This beer is to take the sting out of winter. A full bodied beer also rich and bursting with warm, round flavours of coffee and chocolate with a subtle tone of smokiness, rounded off with an addictive hoppy finish. All that you expect from a Stout!

This is the latest addition at The George Brewery! It caters for the hops lovers amongst us. Brewed in the familiar style of an American Pale Ale, this beer has a local twist!
