South Melbourne
Born in the West, Brewed in the South.
Independent craft beer made with obsession, served with pride.
EST. 2016 · NO. 36 ALFRED · SOUTH MELBOURNETHE BLUEPRINT FOR
THE BLUEPRINT FOR
GOOD BEER.
We don't brew to fit shelf space, and we don't clear taps for corporate contracts. Tucked down a side street in South Melbourne since 2016, Westside Ale Works is an independent warehouse taproom built on the unapologetic, hop-forward intensity of the US West Coast.
Twenty taps. Sixteen our own. Four for friends we rate. No design theater, no corporate backing — just bold, fresh beer poured by people who care how it gets to the glass.
The Taproom
South Melbourne's Neighbourhood Brewery
20 taps of fresh beer, rustic pizzas, shuffleboard, and a warehouse with real warmth. Open Wednesday to Sunday.
Functions & Events
