Essential Vessels for Liquid Storage

Storage is a constant bottleneck for growing beverage companies. West Auctions provides a marketplace for the vessels that keep production moving. From 1/6 barrel kegs for the taproom to 60-barrel brite tanks for packaging runs, our inventory covers the full spectrum of liquid storage needs. We serve breweries, cideries, wineries, and kombucha makers.

We specialize in the logistical challenge of moving large tanks. Our auction descriptions include height and diameter measurements, helping you plan for transport and installation. Whether you need food-grade plastic for fermentation or premium French oak for aging, our platform offers a rotating selection of cooperage and stainless steel to fit your budget.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the kegs embossed with a brewery name?

Yes, used kegs often have the original owner's name embossed. Buyers should be aware of keg ownership laws; we only sell kegs that are legally released by the owner or seized assets.

Are the tanks suitable for pressure?

Some tanks are atmospheric (non-pressure) while others are pressure-rated brite tanks. Check the description and data plate photos to confirm if the vessel can hold pressure.

Can I buy just one barrel?

We often sell barrels in lots (e.g., 'Lot of 4 Oak Barrels'). However, unique or specialty casks may be sold individually. Check the catalog for lot quantities.

Do you sell plastic IBC totes?

Yes, we frequently auction caged IBC totes. Check the description to see if they were previously used for food products or chemicals, as this dictates their future usability.

Are the keg spears included?

Yes, kegs are typically sold complete with spears (D-system is most common). We recommend inspecting for damaged or bent spears before use.

How do I clean used barrels?

Used barrels are sold as-is and may contain tartrates or residue. Proper swelling, cleaning, and sanitizing are the buyer's responsibility immediately upon receipt.
