“We have eight different styles: Our Czech Dark Pilsner, German Marzen lager; Bohemian Pilsner, a classic Pilsner with a twist; German Weiss beer; Irish Red Ale; Strawberry Ale, a Belgian Witbier (made with bitter orange peel and coriander), and our latest and most popular our Ballito Belgian Ale.”

#5.Old Main Brewery 
OMB was started by 2 brothers in Kwa-Zulu Natal a couple decades ago. That’s right. It was years before everyone and their neighbor started launching craft beer into the market. These boys experimented making their first beer (out of pineapple and any other fruit they could find) before they learned to drive a car or kiss a girl. Getting their boarding school friends good and plowed on a regular basis, they were possibly the first bootleggers in history under the legal drinking age.
