The Biggest Beer in Sandton

From behind the bar

Hannes' Wisdom

Twenty-six years of pulling pints teaches a man a few things. Most of them are about beer. Some of them are about water.

Short lessons, poured slowly.

Hannes has been behind this bar since Gilroys started brewing on the premises. He has opinions about beer, and he is generous with them.

This is where we keep them. New ones land when he has something to say.

"Water makes a sound. Gilroy's beer? That's a different tune altogether." Hannes, Gilroys Brewery

There's music in the beer

All you need for a little Irish pub atmosphere is a glass, a finger and a proper Gilroy's pour. Hannes demonstrates the difference between water and a real ale, with sound on. Turn your volume up. That's the whole point of this one.

Come hear it in person.

The sound is better live, and so is the beer. Hand-crafted ales brewed on the premises since 2000.
