Background

History

West Brewery opened in March 2006, serving beer made in its Glasgow Green microbrewery to customers in the adjoining beer hall, West on the Green. The company West Brewing Company went into administration, but was bought back by Wetzel in 2008. In 2016, following a decade in business, West opened a new £5 million brewery, housed in the same premises within the Templeton Building on Glasgow Green. The new brewery brought with it a ten-fold increase in capacity to 2500000 l per year. In the same year, West on the Green also expanded with the opening of an adjacent 250-capacity Wedding and Events space.
