The Black Horse
Have you been to the Black Horse in Magaliesberg? No? Oh my! You've not lived until you've tasted the suds produced there. They brew lagers that will paint a tear of joy on a Viking's chin. They conjure up pretty pink berry brews that will make Cupid fall in love. To boot, their food is amazing too. The Dark Horse is so popular that they are booked in advance over weekends. We suggest you do the same and hook yourself up with a table this coming weekend – you won't be sorry. The estate which the brewery is built on is beautiful and great to take a walk through with a draught of their finest sunshine in hand. Find more information hereLeafy Greens
