LOCATION> Greyton (Old Potters Brewhouse) to Hermanus (Hemel en Aarde Brewery), South Africa.

Greyton is a small town tucked away against the mountains in the Overberg of the Western Cape, a mere 1-hour drive by car to Hermanus. Hermanus is a small coastal fisherman’s town known for whale watching and weekend breakaways for families.

THE EVENT> Race day was Sunday 6th October 2019, from Greyton to the Brewery at Wine Village, near Hermanus. Cyclists set off at 08h00 on an 85km scenic route with 1400m of elevation ahead of them. There was the alternative option of a shorter 25km circular route which started at 08h15 and finished at the Old Potters Brewery in Greyton.

The vibe and energy on the day was contagious as the fun started early in the morning and continued throughout the day.

COLLABORATION>We were so excited about joining forces with this dynamic team on this outdoor event, and so grateful to have been given this opportunity to work together on these awesome t-shirts, caps and even the race map.

Looking good on event day. Photos taken by Gillian Coetzee.

THE BREWERIES> Old Potters Brewhouse and Inn was established in 2016, in the small village of Greyton, in the heart of the Overberg. In the surrounding area of Caledon, the golden malted barley fields are used in the making of our beers.

Hemel en Aarde Brewery is nestled at the entrance to the renowned Hemel & Aarde Valley wine region – a beautiful piece of land, who’s beauty presented its name upon it, Heaven & Earth.                                     

A very successful event organised by the teams from Coastline Group & MTB-Adventures.  For more information about this event, please visit the website> brewerytobrewery.co.za
