New Brewery To Offer Mini Golf, Taproom At Jersey Shore

OCEAN VIEW, NJ — Soon, you'll be able to enjoy a refreshing cold beer and a rousing game of mini golf at the same location at the Jersey Shore.

Philadelphia-based Meyers Brewing Company recently announced they would be opening a sister location on Route 9 in Cape May County's Ocean View, called "Meyers Lighthouse Brewing Company." It's set to open in May 2024, with a specific opening date to be announced.

The new brewery, owned by Ocean City resident Mike Meyers, will offer a taproom, outdoor seating and a mini golf course, the company announced on social media.

"The brewery will serve a variety of beer styles such as hazy IPAs, sours, stouts, and more," the brewery said. "Meyers Lighthouse Brewing will focus on bringing exciting, high-quality beer to the Ocean View area and contributing to the vibrant culture of the community."

Meyers founded the original location in Fishtown in 2021, converting an 1800s carriage house into the brewery. At the end of 2023, he bought a mini golf course in Ocean View with the intent to use it for further expansion.

The course will be a separate business on the brewery's property, according to the company.

"As a resident of Ocean City, Meyers wants to share his brand of hospitality, good vibes and great beers with family and friends at the Jersey Shore," the brewery said.

The new brewery also brings a local brewer back to the area - Tuckahoe native Andrew Swanson, who moved to Somers Point and now resides in Upper Township.

"Swanson has been brewing professionally since 2017 and in 2020 graduated from the American Brewers Guild Intensive Brewing Science & Engineering course while serving as head brewer at Swedesboro Brewing Company," according to Meyers Brewing. "Swanson has been head of brewing at Meyers Brewing in Fishtown since March 2023."

"Meyers Lighthouse Brewing looks forward to serving the local community as well as vacationers at the Jersey Shore," the brewery said. "With 12 taps in the tasting room and ample outdoor seating, it is sure to be a destination for craft beer enthusiasts!"
