While I would knock over my great grandma to get a piece of rhubarb pie before her, not sure how it would be in a mash. I would think that there would not be much sugar in rhubarb and you would have to add lots too it. Most of the fruit musts I've ran carry over very little fruit flavor but usually have good fruit smell, and a lot of our taste comes from smell. Rhubarb doesn't have much smell to it compared to peaches, apples, strawberries, etc. so you might have better luck in getting that rhubarb taste from making wine out of it.

Rhubarb is great in a panty-dropper type recipe.
