A sneak peek of photos from the new edition of Beer Safari \u2013 images by Marla Burger<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

It\u2019s been a while since I wrote anything on the blog. Life has been busy, what with BeerEx Africa<\/a>, the African Beer Cup<\/a> and kicking off research for a new edition of Beer Safari<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

For those of you who are new(ish) to the South African Beer scene, the first edition of Beer Safari<\/a> was released in 2015. The book documented more than 80 breweries across the country, telling their stories and listing their beers.<\/p>\n

The beer scene has changed a lot in ten years \u2013 some breweries have closed, many more have opened. And I\u2019m thrilled to be able to say that I have a contract to write a new edition of the book, this time covering breweries around the continent, not just South Africa.<\/p>\n

Beer Safari: A guide to the craft breweries of Africa will be published in 2027 by Penguin Random House. I kicked off the research earlier this year, visiting the breweries of the Eastern Cape and Garden Route. But a book like this comes with considerable research costs \u2013 flights, accommodation, car rental, spending hundreds of rands on national highway tolls\u2026 And while the publisher covers the costs to produce, print, market and distribute the book, the research costs, including photography, fall to the author,<\/p>\n

So I am launching a crowd-funder to help with the travel expenses and I really hope that, if you\u2019ve enjoyed the blog over the years, you\u2019ll consider pledging. You can head over to the crowd-funder page here to check out the options<\/a>. And if your company would like to sponsor in some way, please drop me a line<\/a> to chat.<\/p>\n

Thanking you all massively in advance. I can\u2019t wait to get stuck into this book, and to sharing the finished product with you next year.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
