Beer Up, Wind Down: Vineyard Hotel Serves Two-for-One Vibes with Jack Black Beer

As the days stretch a little longer and the sun lingers just a bit later, the Vineyard Hotel in Newlands is welcoming summer the right way. 

Beer Up Thursdays — a relaxed, golden-hour celebration for locals and wanderers alike.

Every Thursday evening in October — the 16th, 23rd and 30th, to be exact — the Garden Lounge & Patio becomes your go-to spot to ease into the warmer season.

• From 5 to 7 pm, they’re serving two-for-one Jack Black lager and pale ale, the kind of deal that makes you wish Thursdays came twice a week. Picture this: crisp craft beer in hand, a seat beneath the trees, and the soft hum of conversation blending with the garden’s birdsong. It’s casual. It’s classy. And it’s the perfect midweek reset.

No bookings, no fuss — just good beer, good company, and one of Cape Town’s most iconic hotel gardens setting the mood. So whether you’re toasting to the end of the workday, catching up with friends, or simply soaking in the soft return of summer, Beer Up Thursdays at the Vineyard is the kind of ritual you’ll want to make a habit.
