Brewing With Briess

Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃 We are filled with gratitude for the incredible support and relationships we share with our craft beer community. Your collaboration and friendship mean the world to us. Here's to many more shared successes and memories in the year ahead! 🍻

When we get to hang with members of the Pink Boots Society, we jump to the occasion! 🩷 Briess Division Manager Michael Forncrook performed an educational Hot Steep presentation and ran a sensory panel with the Inland Empire Chapter. A big shout out goes to Head Brewer Hannah at Last Name Brewing for hosting in beautiful Upland, California. 🙌

#𝐅𝐮𝐧𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐅𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐲 👉 Roasted Barley is NOT malted! It bypasses germination and proceeds directly to the roaster, where high temps develop rich coffee, intense bitter and dry flavors, with deep mahogany red-to-deep brown colors. This is the go-to malt when brewing 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐬 and some 𝐏𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 at 3-7%. Or use in a wide variety of styles for complexity. It also adds color to foam. 𝐏𝐫𝐨 𝐭𝐢𝐩 👉 Use Roasted Barley with Dark Chocolate Malt in dark beer styles - think espresso stout + cocoa nibs. Lends a subtle roast/toast character/complexity to Red or Brown Ales. #brewingwithbriess #briess #malt #maltedbarley #roasted #craftbrewers

🎉 Congrats to all the breweries voted in 𝐂𝐫𝐚𝐟𝐭 𝐁𝐞𝐞𝐫 & 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠'𝐬 Reader's Choice contest! 🍻 Cheers to your success and to many more outstanding brews ahead!

When your Malthouse is located right on the shoreline of Lake Michigan, you receive the brightest and best sunrises! 🌞 Have a happy Friday, friends! Thank you, Greg Kraynek, for capturing this!

Introducing a new Red IPA collab from Foam Brewers in Vermont: ℂ𝕠𝕝𝕠𝕣 𝕆𝕦𝕥 𝕆𝕗 𝕊𝕡𝕒𝕔𝕖 🍻 Featuring Briess' new Crystal Red™ Malt and hops from John I. Haas, Inc. You’ll find that the hops’ tropical notes of stone fruit and tangerine meld beautifully with the malts’ gentle caramel and toasty undertones.

Yesterday we heard the news of over 70 dogs being rescued from a local hoarding and neglect situation and right into the care of Chilton's Eastshore Humane Association. ❤️ Our hearts were overjoyed to see the support of the community firsthand with generous donations, including some from Briess, but they are still in need of various assistance: ✅ Weekend volunteers ✅ Foster families ✅ Cat adoptions, to help create space ✅ Monetary donations: https://lnkd.in/gGbRYSrg ✅ Cleaning Supplies: bleach, dish soap, paper towels, garbage bags, laundry detergent, gloves For more information, please visit 𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐞𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤.𝐜𝐨𝐦/𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐡𝐮𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐞 to help provide the care and love these animals deserve!
