A Building Steeped in History
Welcome to Route 62 Brewing Company, proudly housed in one of Montagu’s most iconic landmarks. This beautifully preserved Victorian building was constructed in 1888 on land first subdivided in 1852, making it a true cornerstone of local heritage.
Originally serving as Montagu’s very first post office, the building played a central role in the town’s early development. During the Anglo-Boer War, it was repurposed by British troops as their operational headquarters—an enduring testament to its historical significance.
In the years that followed, the space was transformed into a private residence and was once home to the esteemed Esther Hoffmeyr. Today, it stands reimagined as Route 62 Brewing Company—a place where history, community, and craft beer come together.
We invite you to raise a glass in a setting rich with stories and character, where the past meets the present in every pour.
