The Events
A monthly gathering at the brewery, an Oktoberfest of our own, and two festivals worth travelling for.
CBC Unplugged
Once a month the brewery slows down and opens up. Each edition puts a special variant on tap, often unfiltered and unpasteurised versions of the range: Harvest Lager, West Coast IPA and Amber Weiss the way they taste straight from the tank. Live music, German-style food, and the beer at its source.
Spice Route Oktoberfest
CBC's own Oktoberfest, held at the CBC brewery at Spice Route, Paarl. A traditional celebration: CBC beers, German food, and a festive day on the farm. Your ticket includes a CBC-branded beer mug to drink from and take home, and your first beer.
Capital Craft Beer Festival
One of South Africa's biggest craft beer festivals, at the Pretoria National Botanical Gardens: more than forty breweries, over two hundred beers, live music, gourmet food, and a kids' area. CBC joins as a participating brewery. If you're upcountry, this is the chance to drink CBC far from the Cape.
Fools & Fans Beer Festival
South Africa's cult country beer festival, in Greyton in the Overberg, at the Moravian Hall and around the village. Friday belongs to the homebrewers and a national interclub competition; Saturday brings the commercial brewers, a fun run, live music and street food. CBC joins on the Saturday as a participating brewery.
