Synergy Pils Malt (Briess)
« on: May 14, 2017, 09:25:38 am »
Anyone have experience with Briess synergy Pils malt? I'm thinking about ordering a sack, along with some Vienna.

From Briess:
Synergy Select Pilsen Malt
Lovibond 1.8
Balance malty flavor with 
subtle honey, bready and
cracker notes
DP 100. True European-style Pilsen Malt rich in flavor, high in extract and low in protein with moderate enzymes and FAN. Made from hand picked Synergy Barley grown in the flood-irrigated, semi-arid plains of the Bighorn Basin in Northern Wyoming.

Looks like a good one, but I don't brew often enough to justify a full sack of an unfamiliar malt.

Sounds interesting, which is an unusual statement to make about a Briess malt.

Let us know how it is if you end up buying a sack.

I have not but I'll throw a sack on my next order and give it a try. Sounds interesting.

I was at HomebrewCon2017 and Briess had a Helles on tap made from 100% Synergy Pils. It was fantastic! I got a sample amount but not near enough to brew a batch. Cannot find it at my usual homebrew stores. Has anyone found a place to buy it yet?
