I stopped at my LHBS on Monday afternoon to pick up some standard American 2-row for a cream ale and an amber lager. I could have sworn that this place carried Briess malt in the past (btw... these are precrushed, 5-pound packs that they sell... they rotate very quickly), but as I was paying and reading the label, I noticed that the bags say SCHREIER 2-ROW PALE. It also says... This malt is well-modified, clean-tasting and moderate in total protein. An excellent base malt for all beer styles. Typical color 1.5L to 2.5L. I see that they have a plant in Sheboygan and that they were recently purchased by Cargill. Anyone use this stuff regularly? I brewed the amber lager with it yesterday and it seemed to perform nicely.

Wow I have never herd of them....but you may just be really happy with it...I went to go get some base malt for a pale once and noticed the LHBS was carrying some Colorado Malting Company 2-row...I thought its local so I gotta try it...the Pale turned out great, i would probably switch to it rather than the Briess I normally use but this LHBS is a little farther than the others around me and I have been ordering a lot of grain bills from brewmasters warehouse recently.
