No. The locals still living in the traditional way in rural areas make
alcoholic drinks from a variety of fruits but it is a dying art. However,
Marula beer made from the fruit of the Marula tree has become very popular.
Phalaborwa is the epicentre of the annual week long Marula Festival at the
end of February which begins with the ceremonial tasting of the First Fruits
by a local chief.

I never head of these before - they look a little like corn dogs hanging
from the tree. The Wikipedia article says that a sort of beer is made
out of the fruit. Have you ever had any?
