Alexandra Beer Hall

Alexandra Beer Hall Blue Plaque - Heritage Portal - 2012

In the early days of Alex, many women turned to illicit brewing of beer to make a living. In the 1940s municipal authorities put an end to this, and created beer halls to generate funds to cover the costs of managing the township.
