The Matilda Bay Brewing Company is an Australian brewery, owned by the Foster's Group. Originating from small batches brewed for the Sail and Anchor hotel in 1984, their main brewery opened in 1989 in a prominent building on the Stirling Highway occupied by Ford Motor Company. The company was purchased by Carlton and United Breweries in the early 1990s (now part of the Foster's Group).

In 2005, the Matilda Bay Garage Brewery began operating in Dandenong, Victoria in an effort to brew small batches of more experimental beers.

In 2007 Fosters announced the closure of the Perth brewery and moved production to its other breweries, with most being moved to the Cascade brewery in Tasmania.
