Darling Brewery in Woodstock is kicking off the weekend the way Cape Town intended, with live music, craft beers and good food. Every week you can watch a new act while sipping on ice cold Darling beer. October’s lineup includes Brandon Hunt, Stanley Sibande and Jon Shaban.

SIP PREMIUM SPECIALTY BEER
There’s only a handful of things Capetonians love more than live music and craft beer, especially when it comes to pale ales, lagers, wheat beers or IPAs. Ask your waiter for some of Darling Brewery’s mini beer flutes. This way you’ll still get to taste their whole range of premium speciality beers before you settle on your favourite.
THEIR LINEUP IS ALWAYS GROWING
Every weekend music-lovers will get to watch someone brand new like Stanley Sibande, Jon Shaban or Brandon Hunt heading up Darling Brewery’s stage.

MAKE THIS YOUR WEEKLY FRIDAY JOL
The festivities and live music kick off from 6pm until 8pm, and entrance is free for anyone interested. Can't make it in the evening? The brewery will also be open all day serving up pizzas, nachos, burgers and, of course, some of their delicious craft beer. They also cook-up authentic German dishes. Their German Vienna sausages are delicious with fresh homemade bread and hot mustard, and the Bavarian Leberkase, which is something like a German meatloaf, is definitely worth a try.
