Barrel House Z is a brewery, taproom, and event space, ideal for weddings and other special occasions in Westwood, Massachusetts. Founder Russ Heissner, who became the first brewer at the infamous Harpoon Brewery in 1986, started Barrel House Z 30 years later.

Facilities and Capacity

Today, Barrel House Z is known for its delicious, small-batch craft beers, decades of brewing experience, and chill, neighborhood vibe. This South Shore venue offers a laid-back and inclusive setting to celebrate your wedding. Choose from several spaces, both indoor and outdoor, with each offering a similarly relaxed vibe. Inside, the exposed piping and cement floor create a stylish, industrial aesthetic, perfect for any wedding theme or colors.
