Dry Irish Stouts. Rich Irish Reds. Single Pot Still Whiskeys. However you're celebrating St. Patrick's Day, we hope you're surrounded by true friends and good cheer. At RahrBSG, we're grateful to be with our longtime partners and pals at Summit Brewing Company for our annual lunch of corned beef and cabbage. This year's meal is made even more special with an Irish Red Ale brewed for the occasion using Gambrinus Malting Mars Malt. Red beer, green beer, gold beer — let's all raise a glass to collaboration and tradition!

"Careful, man! There's a beverage here!" BIG thanks to the crew at Brühaven in Minneapolis for inviting Sami Kleiner and Jim Wiggins to help out with their Big Lebowski Beer. "Over the Line" Smoked Helles features a smooth balance of bready malt sweetness and a subtle smoky edge from Weyermann® Malz' Beech Smoked Barley Malt. For everything Weyermann®, remember to contact RahrBSG!

From growing up in the heart of the malt house to studying at Weihenstephan, Franziska Weyermann has always been immersed in the world of craft beer. As a 5th-generation family member of Weyermann® Malz, she’s not just carrying on a family tradition—she’s shaping its future. Inspired by her mother, sabine weyermann, Franziska leads with passion, quality, and a deep commitment to the brewers she serves. She understands firsthand that malt is more than an ingredient—it’s the foundation of great beer and strong relationships. Her influence can be felt across the industry, from the smallest craft breweries to the biggest names in beer. At RahrBSG, we’re proud to call Franziska a partner, collaborator, and friend. Today, on International Women’s Day, we celebrate her impact and the many women making their mark on the brewing world. Cheers to Franziska and all the women shaping the future of beer!

Hello from Chicago! Brewer Mariana Schneider and the team at Pipeworks Brewing are cranking out a Cold Pale Ale called The World Is Ours. Brewed in honor of International Women's Day, it features North Star Pils™ and Wheat Malt from Rahr Malt. This beer will be available on March 8, with proceeds from every pint benefitting CWIT - Chicago Women in Trades, a local organization helping women have equal access to information, training, and employment opportunities in the industry. Cheers to that!

Beer brings people and communities together. Today is a day that we need that focus on both sides of the border. Tariffs are now being levied on the malts produced at our facilities in Alberta and British Columbia. However, Rahr Malting Co. also operates the largest malting facility in North America in Shakopee, Minnesota. We are a family-owned, North American company with employees, facilities, and colleagues in both the United States and Canada. Prohibition and COVID are just a couple of the challenges we’ve navigated. We are committed to supporting both our customers and the industry at large as we move through these uncertain times. This is a dynamic situation, and we’ll continue to monitor and communicate with you. Please reach out to your sales representative or our customer service team – we’re here to help. Let's support each other, and let's support beer.

International Women’s Day is March 8, and Arbeiter Brewing in Minneapolis, MN, is raising a glass to the women who make great beer happen. Now available on draft, Eff Patriarchy is a West Coast-style Double IPA with clean bitterness and intense hop flavors. RahrBSG is proud to have provided the malt foundation here with Weyermann® Pilsner Malt, selected specifically because Weyermann® Malz is a woman-owned company. Please join us in celebrating the contributions of women within our industry and beyond!
