LSO REPORT 
THE BREWERY, GLENEGEDALE, ISLE OF ISLAY, PA42 7AS 
An application for a new Premises Licence for the Brewery, 
I am informed this may revert to an application for a provisional premises licence as the
Section 50 certificate for Building Standards is at this time outstanding. 
The applicant explains; 
“The premises sit within the brewery site on Islay. The licensed premises are a visitor centre
with an outside beer garden. The visitor centre premises have a retail space and a tap room
where customers can purchase off sales and on sales and sample products.
In addition to the bar area, retail space and beer garden, the visitor centre premises have a
small office, cellar/kitchenette and toilet facilities for both male/female and disabled customers,
including baby changing facilities.”
