Inspired by the gentle art of brewing beer that is crafted instead of manufactured, Marc de Maudave Bestel saw the need to open a taproom brewery and restaurant in Hermanus and create a local beer that would be synonymous with the gentle lifestyle of Hermanus and the sound of the whale song sung.

    Food and drink was good, and extremely well priced. It didn't seem like the knew about our reservation, although we booked it through dineplan. Fortunately, they had a table available. Kids had a great time playing in the "play pen". Beers were good - IPA, a group favorite.

    Enjoyed a great family lunch on the last day of the year. Lots of variety - sushi, burgers, pizza and enjoyable sharing table baskets. Made our lunch memorable. Thanks Aikona for great service of a big group on a very busy day. Will return for beer tasting!
