Newberry and Lexington, South Carolina
Voodoo Brewing Company, a well-known brewing chain based in Pennsylvania, is set to expand its operations to South Carolina with new locations in downtown Newberry and Lexington. The Newberry location will be nearby the Newberry Opera House, while the Lexington venue will be situated at 102 W. Main St., close to the Icehouse Amphitheater.
Construction updates for the Voodoo Brewing Newberry are being actively posted on the company’s Instagram page. However, a grand opening date for this location has not yet been disclosed. This new venue in Newberry will offer an eclectic pub atmosphere inspired by local traditions, educational institutions, and the area’s natural beauty, making it a unique addition to the downtown landscape.
The icon design for Voodoo Brewing Newberry represents the Carolina jessamine flower and the Newberry Wolves, a symbol associated with Newberry College. The menu will feature a variety of offerings, including “world-class beer, hand-crafted cocktails, and elevated pub fare,” catering to an array of tastes and preferences.
The Lexington location is expected to cover nearly 5,000 square feet and will also join a burgeoning establishment set to include TakoSushi, an Asian fusion restaurant, and Molto Vino, a new wine bar. All three businesses are on track to be fully operational by the end of 2024, contributing to the vibrant food and drink scene in Lexington.
These new developments come as Voodoo Brewing Company continues to extend its reach across the United States, with nearly 30 locations in 12 states currently. In South Carolina, the brewery has already established two other locations: one opened in Murrells Inlet in October of last year and another in Fountain Inn. Additionally, another Voodoo Brewing location is planned to open in Myrtle Beach later this year.
The expansion into Newberry and Lexington reflects a broader trend where larger brewing chains are increasing their presence in South Carolina, even as smaller brewpubs face challenges. Voodoo Brewing is particularly recognized for its new age IPAs and distinctively designed cans, which have garnered a loyal consumer base.
With its focus on high-quality craft beverages and a unique dining atmosphere, Voodoo Brewing’s upcoming locations are expected to be significant draws for both locals and visitors in Newberry and Lexington. As the construction progresses and the grand openings approach, residents can look forward to a fresh dining and social experience within their communities.
Overall, as Voodoo Brewing Company continues to carve out a niche in South Carolina, its new ventures signify both opportunity and change for the local economy and the state’s craft brewing landscape.
