Beer, Sociability and Masculinity
in South Africa
Anne Kelk Mager
“A compelling story of how one of the most
successful corporations in South Africa
managed to thrive during the apartheid
period.... At the same time, this is a study of the
history of beer drinking, corporate culture in
South Africa, the public sphere under apartheid
and after, and gender and race relations.”
