Murray, Serpentine, Harvey: Mandurah's three rivers all flow into the Peel Inlet, which in turn empties into the Indian Ocean. It's a cyclic environmental image, setting a sustainable tone at this cheery craft brewery in the industrial backblocks. There's no gimmickry here, just traditionally brewed English, European and American ales. The Tomahawk American pale ale (APA) rules the roost. Tasting paddles $10.
Three Rivers' head brewer is a reformed agricultural scientist, who has cobbled together his 'frankenbrewery' using recycled stainless-steel milk vats. The brewing process uses a low water footprint, with byproducts trucked to local community gardens for use as fertiliser and chicken feed.
