Westport doesnt really have much going on for it. I think most people just fill up withpetrol here and carry on, but we needed to break a long drive up so we booked into a pub/hotel for the night. With nothing much to do we amused ourselves in the local supermarket for a while and then headed back to the pub to eat lunch. After a bottle of wine we were searching through the Lonely Planet for something to do and realised there was a brewery in town (how we missed that I do not know!) and the bonus was it was literally 1 min from where we were staying!
The West Coast Brewery is a great little place -it produces organic beer which tastes great and there is a real homespun feel about the place. The locals rock up and fill their empty plastic bottles with beer straight from the taps, and have a few cheeky cups on the side! We ended up filling up an old 1.5l Diet Coke bottle with one of their beers which was delicious.
The different beers on tap. The tastings were HUGE, we got whole cup fulls of the stuff!
