Description
Westside Ale Works is a family-owned and operated craft brewery tucked away on Alfred Street in South Melbourne. Partner and Head Brewer, Casey Wagner, pays homage to the microbreweries of the U.S. West Coast with everything he does - from the cozy atmosphere of our warehouse-style taproom to the hop-driven beers he brews. We take pride in creating a warm and welcoming experience for anyone who walks through our big roller door!
