If you've never sampled one of the 99 beers at the iconic yellow Beerhouse on Long Street , this weekend will be your last chance. Owner Randolf Jorberg has decided to call it quits after receiving death threats following his 'rallying call to other business owners in the CBD to band together against “extortion, intimidation and racketeering'. Jorberg spoke out against the extortion rackets plaguing the city's business owners in a September 2022 Carte Blanche exposé .

” Jorberg received death threats and has since been living a nomadic lifestyle and announced Beerhouse’s closure on his social platforms on Wednesday afternoon. Jorberg claims the extortion started in 2013 already when a man from the ‘underworld’ pitched a proposal for a protection fee which he refused to pay. The 2015 murder of one of his employees is believed to be a result of his refusal to cooperate.
