Happy Sekanka

Happy Sekanka is a South African brewmaster. She is currently the brewmaster at the all-women brewery, Oakes Brew House, created by Thea Blom.

Sekanka is from the Limpopo province. She was taught how to brew beer by Delia Bailey, a microbiologist and co-owner of Oakes Brew House.

Like many women in brewing, Sekanka has faced gender and racial stereotypes in the industry, where some men are surprised a black woman is making their beer.
