IREKS Rye Malt

IREKS Rye Malt brings the distinct character brewers expect from rye, with a bready grain profile, light color contribution, and a creamy, velvety mouthfeel. IREKS notes that this malt’s high arabinoxylan content can increase viscosity in the finished beer, making it especially useful when brewers want more texture, body, and palate weight without relying on crystal malt sweetness.

Use it in rye beers, roggenbier, rye IPAs, farmhouse ales, saisons, specialty lagers, and malt-forward ales where a little rustic grain character and added mouthfeel can make the recipe stand out. At lower percentages, it can add subtle bread-like complexity and texture; at higher percentages, it becomes a more defining part of the beer’s structure and flavor.
