Rahr Red Wheat Malt is produced from North American hard red spring wheat, offering a distinctive flavor profile and functional benefits in brewing. This malt contributes a rich, wheaty flavor with notes of bread and a slight nuttiness, enhancing the complexity of wheat beers and other styles. Its color typically ranges around 2.3 Lovibond, imparting a pale to light golden hue to the beer.

The high protein content of Red Wheat Malt is instrumental in improving head formation and retention, resulting in a stable and persistent foam. Additionally, it enhances mouthfeel, providing a fuller and more satisfying body to the finished beer. The malt is well–modified, ensuring efficient conversion during mashing and contributing fermentable sugars to the wort.

Rahr Red Wheat Malt is versatile and can be used in a variety of beer styles, including American and Belgian wheat beers, Hefeweizens, and as a component in pale ales and IPAs to add complexity. It can constitute a significant portion of the grist, depending on the desired flavor and functional contributions, and is compatible with both single infusion and step mashing processes.
