This Friday is International Beer Day when lovers of the brew from around the globe will be flocking to pubs and breweries to enjoy a cold one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beer is one the world\u2019s most beloved drink and thanks to several local and national brewers, it is more than just standard beer that tickles the taste buds these days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

South Africans consumes roughly 34.47 million hectolitres (hl) of ale annually, which makes it the world\u2019s 12th largest beer consuming nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To cater to diverse consumer preferences, breweries have pushed the boundaries of flavour innovation. Spices, fruit and herbal tisanes, like Rooibos, have found their way into beer recipes, resulting in intriguing blends that reflect the country\u2019s rich culinary heritage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adele du Toit, spokesperson for the South African Rooibos Council says the small-batch, all-natural brewing market has experienced a surge in popularity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFor modern consumers, homebrewing and enjoying unique and diverse beer flavours add value to the experience. Homebrewing allows beer enthusiasts to experiment with different ingredients and brewing techniques, which provide them with a chance to create personalised and one-of-a-kind (signature) brews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt also allows individuals to be creative with their beer recipes. They can experiment with various hops, malts, yeast strains and extras to craft beers tailored to their preferences. This level of customisation is not always possible with commercial beers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She says the use of Rooibos in beer has found increasing favour among craft brewers the world over with dozens of Rooibos-infused beer options now available. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cRooibos, which is native to South Africa, has unique flavours and characteristics that can complement and enhance beer profiles. Rooibos\u2019 mild sweetness, earthy notes, and hints of vanilla and honey adds to its appeal in beer. These flavours can add complexity and depth to various beer styles, particularly lighter or malt-forward brews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For homebrewers, give this Rooibos Beer Recipe a try on International Beer Day:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
Rooibos Beer Recipe<\/div>\n
\n

It makes: 7,25 litres<\/p>\n

Preparation time: 20 Minutes (excluding fermentation time)<\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n

5 ml sugar<\/p>\n

500 ml lukewarm water<\/p>\n

10 g instant yeast (15 ml \u2013 1 packet)<\/p>\n

600 g castor sugar (750 ml)<\/p>\n

15 ml tartaric acid<\/p>\n

250 ml lemon juice<\/p>\n

20 ml lemon rind<\/p>\n

3 l strong rooibos tea<\/p>\n

3,5 l cold water<\/p>\n

Method<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Dissolve the 5 ml sugar in 500 ml lukewarm water. Sprinkle the instant yeast over and set aside until frothy, about 10 minutes.<\/p>\n

2. Mix the remaining dry ingredients with the liquid and juice together with the activated yeast mixture and stir until well mixed.<\/p>\n

3. Cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrapping and leave in a warm place for about 12 hours.<\/p>\n

4. Strain the mixture through a muslin cloth and pour the beer into bottles with tops. Leave in a cool place for 3 days. Chill before serving.<\/p>\n

Hint<\/strong><\/p>\n

As the beer is very fizzy, ensure that the bottles are opened slowly and carefully, allowing the fizz to subside before totally removing the lid. It must be stored in a cool place or else the yeast will ferment too quickly, and the bottles could explode (preferably use plastic bottles).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

NoordkaapBulletin is a regional newspaper based in Kimberley, the capital of the Northern Cape of South Africa. It has a long-standing history of serving the community with news and information pertinent to the region. The newspaper, distributed in the capital and more than 20 towns, is also read online in other parts of the vast province, and has been an important source of information for residents of the Northern Cape. The publication is geared towards Afrikaans and English-speaking readers, with the content reflecting the cultural diversity of the province. Like the other regional newspapers in South Africa, NoordkaapBulletin has had to adapt to changing media landscapes, including the rise of digital news platforms. However, it remains a significant part of the media landscape in the Northern Cape, helping to keep communities informed and connected.","email":"noordkaapbulletin@novusmedia.co.za","telephone":"+27514047600","legalName":"Novus Media (Pty) Ltd","foundingDate":"2025-01-01","vatID":"4100318916","taxID":"2000\/018234\/07","numberOfEmployees":{"@type":"QuantitativeValue","minValue":"51","maxValue":"200"}},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/#\/schema\/person\/e08d7630612634c4a5ced5db09b6608f","name":"Noordkaap Bulletin","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-ZA","@id":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a99daa5b340dd77d269e8375259ff19cc6329797ffcecb12b900fcfff3ce0bea?s=96&d=mm&r=g","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a99daa5b340dd77d269e8375259ff19cc6329797ffcecb12b900fcfff3ce0bea?s=96&d=mm&r=g","contentUrl":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a99daa5b340dd77d269e8375259ff19cc6329797ffcecb12b900fcfff3ce0bea?s=96&d=mm&r=g","caption":"Noordkaap Bulletin"},"url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/author\/noordkaapbulletin\/"}]}},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1927d6f4a91e439c986ac0a7891ae581.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":265253,"url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/micro-winelands-brewery-claims-africas-top-beer-prize-for-third-time\/","url_meta":{"origin":52273,"position":0},"title":"Winelands micro brewery claims Africa\u2019s top beer prize for third time","author":"Novus Media","date":"30 June 2025","format":false,"excerpt":"FRANSCHHOEK - A modest brewery nestled in the Cape Winelands has once again claimed the continent\u2019s most prestigious beer award, securing Best Beer in Africa at the 2025 African Beer Cup for the third time in its history and the second consecutive year.
