When you have guests that are overnighting in Maun, then introduce them to northern Botswana’s first licensed microbrewery and its great conservation story.
Located just 10 minutes from Maun airport lies the Okavango Craft Brewery which now comprises not only the micro-brewery but also a stunning new brew pub and beer garden. Here you can enjoy award-winning craft beer made from the highest quality ingredients including locally sourced millet.
Local farmers who have incorporated environmentally friendly methods such as chilli bricks, to protect their crops from elephants are being financially rewarded. The Okavango Craft Brewery pay them a premium for their surplus millet which is used to then create the award winning beers. This in turn shows the farmers that they can live in harmony with the elephants who have migrated through this land for hundreds of years.
Here at the brewery “we offer consumers the opportunity to support both people and wildlife around the Okavango, while enjoying quality beer.”
