To understand the closure of BEERHOUSE after 11 years of trade, it's best to watch the story of extortion that began 2 days after we opened in 2013...
#ExtortionMustEND#MarkLifman#atBEERHOUSE
It was this @carteblanchetv exposé that began it all when it was aired on July 21, 2024... The closure of @BEERHOUSE 2 weeks later, the lawsuit from #MarkLifman that followed and all the media attention this caused, peaking with his assassination November 3rd

Extortion rackets have held businesses in Cape Town’s CBD to ransom for years. Beerhouse in Long Street is closing its doors after refusing to pay protection fees. "We cannot have a situation where anybody can prosper and get ahead if these kinds of extortion rackets are going to do what they do. That must end and I'm deeply committed to making that end with whatever tools we have. We do need SAPS to work with us and accept our help." Mayoral committee member for safety and security JP Smith tells #Newzroom405's @MichelleL_Craig.

If you think that extortion is bad in the inner city nightlife or that the closure of @BEERHOUSE is bad. It's WORSE in Khayalitsha!
