Shortjaw
Microbrewery
in Westport,
West Coast,
New Zealand 🇳🇿
Associated Venue: Shortjaw Brewing
In 2021 we took over the old West Coast Brewery (Miner's Brewery) in Westport, New Zealand. Since then we have set about revitalising the 30 year old equipment, with new recipes and a new approach. Our taproom and bar is open Tuesday to Saturday.
Founded by beer writer, and author, Luke Robertson, with partner Emma Bemrose, we are a production brewery and taproom serving great, locally made beer using New Zealand ingredients.
