Come share in our passion for brewing & celebrate beer made with Soul!
World-class craft beer starts with quality raw materials. A beer will only be as great as the potential provided by the ingredients. Most beer is made up of four ingredients: malt, hops, water, and yeast, although craft and Belgian brewing traditions embrace exploring any and all ingredients in the quest for flavour and innovation.
Our beer is only available onsite at our taproom & beer garden, and in growlers to go. It would be easier to bottle and distribute but we believe in serving our beer as fresh as possible so our customers can enjoy the beer as intended. The supply chain in South Africa is currently not ideal for craft beer and is kept warm for too long. This decision means more work and more risk but we believe in delivering South Africans the best beer possible. The brewery is located on the R45 in Simondium between Paarl and Franschhoek before the Klapmuts Rd. Look for the two big barrels on the road!

Believes great beer will change the world. After attending the Master Brewers Program at UC Davis, he spent ten years in the US craft beer industry including time in brewing, distribution, and sales for Abita Brewing Company in New Orleans and New Belgium Brewery in Fort Collins, CO. In 2016 he embarked on a new adventure and moved to Cape Town to start Soul Barrel Brewing.
An avid home brewer for many years while running an IT company working with wine and fruit farms, Mark is married into a 5th generation Simondium wine farming family. Starting a brewery in the old wine tanks has been an invigorating way to return the farm to a higher purpose, while building for the future of South Africa.
