Clarens Brewery
 

Clarens Brewery brews fine hand crafted beers and cider in the beautiful village of Clarens in the foothills of the Maluti Mountains. We're the first and only microbrewery in the Free State and have been since December 2006. Our brewer, Stephan Meyer, has a passion for microbrewed beer and has been been brewing full grain, pure malt beers since 2004 with an absolute dedication to quality and craftmanship. We brew a 5000l batch a month of which half is bottled and half served on tap in the brewery. Read on for a description of the beers.

Not to be missed are our ciders which we have produced commercially since 2004 with fruit from our own orchards just outside our village. Sun-kissed Apple and deliciously pink Cherry ciders are refreshing, dry and light.


We have seasonal beers available most of the time that we brew when we manage to source special malts or hops. We stock imported, bottled Belgian beers from time to time.

Our products are all unpasteurised, preservative and additive free.

Our standard beers and cider available on tap or bottled are:
A light golden ale with a sweet malty aroma with the distinct biscuity flavour of malt with a light hop finish.
An amber coloured ale with medium-bodied caramel malt flavour, a hint of nuttiness and medium hop bitterness with a dry refreshing finish.
A dark, sweet and full-bodied ale with subtle chocolate aromas and a creamy head offering real winter warming comforts.
An ale with a delightful fruity hop character true to the style popular on the west coast of the USA, with perfectly balanced toasty rich maltiness and a long, refreshing, smooth finish.
Our ciders are light, dry and refreshing bursting with the flavour of either fresh apples or cherries grown in the gentle foothills of the Maluti Mountains.
