West End Draught, commonly referred to as red tins, is a South Australian lager brewed by the South Australian Brewing Company. West End Draught is a full strength beer with an alcohol percentage of 4.5%.

Other beers formerly brewed under the West End brand are West End Export,[1] West End Gold,[2] and West End Light.[3]

West End is actively involved with the South Australian National Football League and were the original sponsors of the "Showdown" and the "Slowdown" in the Australian Football League (AFL). In 1954, the annual tradition of painting the colours of the SANFL grand finalist teams on the brewery chimney began.[4]

It was extensively shown and consumed in the 1971 Australian movie Wake in Fright.
