Briess 2-row brewer's malt is our most popular base malt, and for good reason. It is an economical, fully-modified base malt that can be utilized in almost any beer style with wonderful results. It provides a slightly higher yield and has slightly less protein than 6-row brewer's malt. It provides a light golden straw color in beers with which it is brewed.
The flavor has often been described as clean, with some also attributing a sweet and mildly malty flavor to it. These flavor characteristics lend themselves well to a range of different beer styles, anything from blonde and pale ales to Russian imperial stouts, and everything in between. Highly-modified, it is perfect for single infusion mashes employed by many home brewers. If you've never used Briess 2-row, try some today and see what you've been missing out on!
