Is it legal to brew at home?
At the time of writing this e-book, only the distribution and sale of alcohol was banned. Home brewing for own consumption (and not for sale) is allowed.
is it safe to drink home brewed alcohol?
Yes, home brewed alcohol is safe to consume in the same way as homemade cookies are. Provided that nothing toxic being added to your brew. We should remember that brewing your own beverage, just like baking, is for human consumption, therefore you wouldn’t add any battery acid to your chocolate cake as that would be harmful right?
Will I get a phuza face?
“Phuza face” is a term used for one who has suffered the effects of abusing alcohol ( drinking excessively and being dependant on alcohol). Alcohol is a dehydrating agent, therefore when abused it affects your whole body including your skin leaving it dry and flaky (and/or leathery)…in some cases spotty patches – dichubaba in Setswana. By drinking responsibly, maintaining a balanced diet, exercising and staying hydrated your chances of getting a phuza face are very low.

Will I get Mkhaba?
Mkhaba aka the beer belly or boep is mainly caused by your body storing residual calories. Most people enjoy having their drink together with a braai and pap and therefore this increases their chance of having “Mkhaba”. Furthermore, different beverages have different amounts of calories in them and therefore the best way to “Thuba mkhaba” is to manage ones calories and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
Will I get a babalas?
The main cause of a babalas (hangover) is the alcohol in your drink. Alcohol acts as a diuretic, therefore makes you urinate more than you should ultimately causing dehydration. The main cause of most the babalas symptoms is dehydration, therefore by limiting binge drinking and staying hydrated chances of getting a babalas are low. In conclusion, drink responsibly, do not abuse alcohol and enjoy your drank!
