A Mandurah brewery has taken home two trophies from the 2024 Perth Royal Beer Awards, with other local brewers also recognised at the awards.
Erskine outfit Boundary Island Brewing Co took home trophies for best pale ale (packaged) for Estuary Ale XPA and best low alcohol beer (draught) for Island Lager.
Held at Claremont Showground on June 7, the awards recognised brewers from Kalbarri to Esperance for their quality brews, judged as the best in their categories by a panel of 60 experts who analysed 529 entries from 48 exhibitors.
Boundary Island also won six gold medals, one silver and five bronze across numerous categories for its brews.
Fellow Mandurah brewers Thorny Devil Brewing Company were awarded one gold, nine silver and six bronze awards and Falcon’s Wedgetail Brewing Co took home one gold, two silver and three bronze awards.
Old Coast Road brewery in Myalup was also awarded, taking home the best packaged European-style beer for their OCRB Saison.
Royal Agricultural Society of WA chief executive Robyn Sermon said the awards highlighted the variety in WA’s beers.
“The Perth Royal Beer Awards showcase the quality, craftmanship, flavour and diversity of Australian brewed beer,” she said.
“This year’s awards highlighted the outstanding diversity of WA’s thriving brewing scene.
“To see so many fantastic WA brewers from so many different regions recognised is fantastic and fitting given the importance of agriculture and food in this State.”
