Enjoy a cold one at the World of Beer | The Planner

The SAB World if Beer is an interactive tourist experience which delves into the brewing process and the history of beer.

Visitors can take a 90-minute guided tour of the SAB World of Beer through the centre’s seven exhibition rooms.

The tour covers a fascinating history of beer that begins in ancient Mesopotamia and continues through Africa and Europe, depicting Joburg’s mining camp days, as well as a traditional Soweto shebeen, in order to provide a backdrop to the brew.

A walk through SAB’s sample brewery, a full-scale brew house, gives one an idea of the scale of production of a drink most of us take for granted.

The tour ends in the legendary Tap Room where the group can enjoy a few cold ones.
