What is The Beer & Beef Club - Melbourne Inc?

Good Beer! Good Beef! Good Fellowship!
This simple statement perfectly captures the spirit of the Melbourne Beer & Beef Club.

Formed in 1963 by like-minded business people, the Club has been meeting regularly ever since and continues to uphold its long-standing traditions.

Members and guests gather for monthly luncheons and occasional dinners at a variety of venues across Melbourne. At each event, beers selected by our Beer Master are thoughtfully paired with a two- to three-course meal featuring beef as the mainstay, chosen by our Food Master. Many events also feature a guest speaker, adding to the richness of the experience.

Our members bring professional experience from a wide range of industry sectors, and guests are encouraged to attend and share in the fellowship of the Club.

The Melbourne Beer & Beef Club also takes pride in raising funds for worthwhile charities and supporting the hospitality industry through our ongoing association with William Angliss.

The dress code is business attire, and all attending members are required to wear their membership tie or scarf at each event.

Membership is by referral.

Our very own Food Master, Evan Burrows, will be firing up the BBQ and taking charge of the food for the day, serving up a proper Beer & Beef feast to go with Brewmanity’s quality brews. Located in South Melbourne and led by former Melbourne Football Club captain David Neitz, Brewmanity is a firm favourite among Beer & Beef members and the perfect setting for an afternoon built around mateship, community and giving back. With Matt Tilley as guest speaker, Damien Fleming as Guest MC, Evan Burrows on the BBQ and FightMND at the heart of the afternoon, this is shaping up to be a fantastic day.
