🍻🍚🌾 Learn how malted #rice could become another tool for the #beer brewing industry on the latest Food, Farms & Forests podcast episode. Listen here: https://lnkd.in/ghGcjB6h Scott Lafontaine, flavor chemist and assistant professor in the food science department, is 'hop'timistic that their research shows many benefits in the brewing and agricultural industries. As climate change and rising costs threaten barley, this novel research shows how malted rice could provide a viable alternative. For consumers, malted rice beer offers a gluten-free option and a variety of unique flavor profiles. And since Arkansas produces about half of the rice in the U.S., local brewers can leverage a domestic agricultural product and present local farmers with another economic opportunity.
