Barley
Barley

It all begins in the farmer's fields. Although "beer" technically can be made from any grain, barley is the preferred variety. We brew Pyramid Ales exclusively with expensive "two-row" barley, which has a softer, less grainy character. And unlike the world's bigger brewers, we refuse to employ any cheap grain adjuncts (corn, rice) that thin beer's taste and body. Depending on the beer, however, we also may use classic "specialty grains" (like wheat, oats, and rye) for their unique flavors they impart.
