Jozi Gold Taproom opens in central Johannesburg<\/strong><\/h5>\nI will admit that it took me a while to find out about this, so while it\u2019s not recent news, it was news to me and might well be to you.<\/p>\n
Jozi Gold Brewing Company<\/a> started as a contract brand, debuting at Capital Craft Beer Festival in 2025. Earlier this year they opened a taproom in Braamfontein, with all beers brewed on site. There are six beers on tap and a menu of bar favourites with a few South African twists. Upstairs is a 100-seater live music venue featuring local jazz performers on select days.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
