Mash Brewing Company is a microbrewery in Henley Brook, located within the Swan Valley region of Western Australia.

History

The Mash Brewing Company opened in April 2006,[1] one of a number of craft breweries operating in the Swan Valley. Based on the operations of the Little Creatures Brewery in Fremantle, the brewery is located behind the main bar and the open working area allows customers to view the brewing activities. Mash Brewing Company has a 12-hectolitre brewhouse. The foundation head brewer was Dan Turley.[2][3]

In mid-2008 the company opened Mash Bunbury,[4] a scaled-down version of their Swan Valley operation, including a 100-litre microbrewery that produces seasonal beers for the venue, served on tap together with the full range of Mash beers.

In early 2011, the Mash Brewing Company established the Mash Brasserie in Rockingham.

In November 2011 a new team,[5] headed by Charlie Hodgson, was brought in and set about reinventing the Company's beer range.[6]
