Shackleton Brewing Company

A gem of a no frills brewery in the observatory area. Lot of beer varietals to choose from. I went for the Kolsche brew and it was yum! Vibes are chilled. You have an option to either sit outside or upstairs as most of the ground floor seating is squashed by the brewing setup. I recommend this brewery to all the beer lovers and anyone who is keen to experiment on his beers.

My friends and I visited this brewery and had a great time. The beer is crisp and delicious tasting. We chatted with the owner for several hours and shared stories. I would highly recommend anyone visiting Cape Town to stop here!

What a wee gem tucked away in the back streets in a trendy new upgrade Owner managed by Steve and his team great reception super ales tasted all they produce and settled on the red. My USA and London visitor pals loved it all. We will definitely revisit this superb spot a super outing oh and u can bring and braai howzat cheers Scottie

One of the hidden gems of Cape Town. An incredible team brewing the best craft beer in town. Their tasting room is a work of art. Orders can also be placed online.

Real gem. Great craft beer and coolers the Fynbos one is simply divine. All beverages are at a very affordable prices. Lovely decor and staff that is friendly, welcoming, professional and proactive. We will be back. Many times more. Thanks Steve and Steve for welcoming us.

The namesake sub-5% pale ale is quite enjoyable and pairs well with the cheeseburger and fries a new food venture. There are currently three beers on tap a malty red ale and kolsh in addition to the pale ale and a tap vodka rooibos tea tea brewed in house and blended. Downstairs is light and airy with tables pushed up against the front windows, while upstairs is a bit dark and brooding with a mix of bar-level seating and a couple couches. The neighborhood here is quickly up and coming.

Outstanding. Vegan beer, superb theme and vision, excellent staff. Will be back.

Friendly staff Cool atmosphere Tasty lager Artwork - yes but out of stock. They gave me some cool can labels. Many Thanks Will visit again

I have ordered 24 cans of Kölsch and received it within 2 days. From CT to Pretoria. I really love Kölsch, its such a light and refreshing beer. This is a famous brew from Cologne, Germany and that is where I first drank Kölsch. So glad to see it here. Drink it from a small glass 200ml ice cold. Glass in picture is one I bought in Cologne

Fantastic new brew. Love it.
