Rahr 6-Row will contribute a pale golden color and a sweet bready and grainy flavor. This base malt is notable for its higher protein content and enzymatic power, which allows it to support large quantities of specialty malts and adjuncts. 6-Row is also an excellent choice for historical styles brewed before the widespread availability of 2-Row barleys.
