BRIESS Synergy Select Pilsen Malt
Details
Synergy Select Pilsen Malt is a true European-style Pilsen Malt that is rich in flavor, high in extract and low in protein with moderate enzymes and FAN. Using a new AMBA variety, our maltsters picked the unique flood-irrigated, semi-arid plains of the Bighorn Basin in northern Wyoming for its ability to grow bright, clean, low protein Synergy barley. Then, individual fields were hand selected for the best quality harvest and malted using European methods to produce a fine North American continental Pilsen malt. Expect balanced flavor with malty, subtle honey, bready, and cracker notes without any grassy or harsh character.
