5 Skippas

About 5 Skippas

There are few people quite as passionate about the South African heritage as dedicated beer-drinkers. There is something about a cold craft brew that inspires all things patriotic, and this pride is best savoured while sipping on an ice-cold lager. 5 Skippas is a craft brewery in Centurion and it is dedicating to celebrating the South African heritage with its range of lagers that are on the stronger side of the beer spectrum.

5 Skippas crafts beers that are bold and authentic. They challenge the norm and promote carving your own path on this road of life. They also want to unite the many cultures (both in and out of South Africa) through the sheer love of the beer.

The 5 Skippas Superior Golden Lager is one of the strongest of its kind on the South African market. Its amber colour and foamy white head are complemented by the ideal balance of hops, barley, malt and water. This has created a smooth, crisp beer that is refreshing and bold.

5 Skippas was started by Deshi Bhaktawer, who was a goalkeeper for the Orlando Pirates before he turned to presenting on TV; and the spokesperson, Good Enough Sithole. Together, these two form a great team as they create outstanding beers together, not only for their own leisurely enjoyment, but also for the South African market to enjoy on a hot summer’s day, around a fire, or in front of a world-class rugby match.

Centurion is a gorgeous suburb between Johannesburg and Pretoria in Gauteng. It has malls, museums, and the Gautrain. Conveniently, it is only 57 kilometres from the OR Tambo International Airport.
