Discover the vibrant food and beer culture of Langa Township, Cape Town, on a guided experience celebrating South African beer, traditional braai, and local community hospitality.

Before modern breweries and commercial beer brands became familiar across South Africa, African communities had their own traditions of brewing beer from grains such as sorghum and maize. Known as umqombothi in many Xhosa-speaking communities, this traditional beer represents more than a drink. It carries stories of family, community, hospitality, and knowledge passed from one generation to another.

Visit participating local taverns and discover the flavors of South African-made beers. Meet the people behind Langa’s local food scene and experience the sights, sounds, and aromas of meat sizzling over hot charcoal at a traditional township braai.

Enjoy a mouthwatering selection of South African favorites, including boerewors, grilled beef, lamb or mutton, pork, and chicken wings, served with pap and spicy chakalaka. Along the way, meet local vendors, hear stories about township life, and discover how food, drink, and shared meals bring people together.
