I have tried the local ales over here and they are very like the Aussie micro breweries. The Castle lager produced by the the huge SAB Miller company is pretty ordinary and like all the local lagers very fizzy and not advisable for a session. My favourite is the Amstel Slow Brewed, Extra Matured and Windhoek Draught which strangely enough comes in a bottle but a latecomer to my attention is Black Label Beer recommended to me by a local street drinker, at 5.5% good taste but it comes in 0.75 litre bottles.
Today is my last full day and this morning I braved Johannesburg's scantily signed road system to visit the Sterkfontein caves in the Cradle of Humankind, I was made up, only one wrong turn in a round trip of around 80km. Chilling this afternoon with an Amstel trying to decide where to go for my final steak tonight.
So looks like a steak diner on Friday .... won't be a tener !!
