ABOUT MODUS MEREWETHER

A spectacular architecturally designed and state-of-the-art venue, alongside a fully operational award-winning brewery, set in the heart of the beachside suburb of Merewether, Newcastle.

The breathtaking space can house around 300 people and can enjoy delicious, brewery-fresh Modus beers poured from 36 frosty taps. The beers on offer includes the Modus core range, including our non-alcoholic NORT range, as well as limited local-only releases ranging from sours to lagers, hazy hoppy IPA’s to dark beers. The range is insane and always changing! And if beer isn’t your thing, don’t worry – we have some amazing seltzers, alcoholic slushies and an extensive selection of curated cocktails, wines and spirits are also on offer.

The menu is as delicious and innovative as the drinks on offer; elevated pub fair with a sprinkle of fresh South American. Our bar and kitchen use fresh Australian ingredients and (as much as possible) we source our extensive range of liquors, spirits and wines from local producers. We are even starting initiatives to grow our own fresh herbs! These examples are only a small part of the larger initiatives to reduce food wastage and carbon emissions.

We love our local community and as much as possible will support local producers and musicians! Wether it is the inclusion of local ingredients on our menu, local musicians playing live music (who can say no to some of the best music in Newcastle while sipping a beer?!) or cheering on our local footy and soccer teams… we are all about beer bringing community together.

This multi-purpose venue has impressive function spaces (Barrel Room, Operandi Room, The Pavillion & The Oasis) for corporate and social functions and includes a huge kid’s play area. There are also brewery tours, masterclass events, limited edition beer release occasions and collaboration events with the local community (think surf film releases, live football screening, pints & picasso, men sheds, cocktail making etc).

Don’t forget, when you are just about to heard out we also have a large selection of Modus and NORT takeaway options when it comes to beer and merchandise. Take a bit of Modus home with you!
