Proudly West Australian, Gage Roads has grown to become the country's leading independent brewery. In Jan '22, we opened Gage Roads Freo, our 1500 capacity brewpub, located in the Fremantle Port, on the Walyalup Waterfront. Perfectly perched on right on the harbour, our venue overlooks the channel of water that originally inspired our name.
Since slinging our first beer, we've solidified ourselves as a "must visit" for tourists, and a regular spot for locals, taking out awards like "Best Bar" and "Best Outdoor Area". Not to mention being packed to the rafters day in and day out.
None of this would be possible without our legendary "Good Times Crew". As a company we champion; Determination, courage, honesty, freedom, creativity, authenticity, balance, independence, and having a good old Aussie crack. It's an ethos we started out with and we're proud that this culture is alive and well within our business to this day.
So, if you are looking to work somewhere with epic views, tasty chews, bloody good brews, and a incredible work culture, Gage Roads Freo is the place for you.
