Ever since bringing in a new head brewer two or three years back, Mash Brewing in the Swan Valley has been impressing with its beers, from the unique, subtly oaked session beer Grasscutter, the fine recreation of an English IPA, Challenger, and most recently the newly crowned Champion Australian Beer Copy Cat American IPA. Despite taking ownership of Melbourne's 3 Ravens last year, which allows them to brew some Mash beers on the East Coast, many of their limited releases only (or at least initially) only appear in WA, other than two kegs that are heading to Beervana. And that's the case with the latest, a Rye Porter that is the brewer's attempt, as with his Koffee Stout, to "squeeze character and complexity into small beers". It's a 4.2 percent beer, brewed with "a good whack of rye" in the mix. We're told it's pretty straightforward other than "an interesting little hop addition".
