Beyond seeking the highest quality crops possible, we source our grains with flavor and aroma characteristics in mind too. This constant exploration of nuance has led us to several single origin Pilsner malt styles in our portfolio, which allow brewers and distillers to craft beer and spirits with a sense of place.

NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE— Bootleg Biology, Harding House Brewing Co., and Riverbend Malt House have engaged the South’s leading tastemakers to craft their expressions of ‘Modern Southern Lager’ to kickoff the Craft Brewers Conference (CBC) on Sunday, May 7 at Harding House Brewing Company in The Nations neighborhood of West Nashville.
So what is a Modern Southern Lager? Open to interpretation, this unofficial beer style tends to be a dry-finishing, lower-ABV beer with a big frothy head and a hint of corn sweetness that is counterbalanced by relatively assertive hop bitterness.
Bloody Butcher Corn has a rich story that’s woven into the history of American distilling. Some recent Modern Farmer coverage of this heritage crop reveals its evolution from moonshine to near extinction to abundant use in craft distilleries.
We were thrilled to weigh in, and we’re excited to provide Bloody Butcher Corn malt to many craft distillers across the Southeast region.

Soft Pivot starts by delivering big hits of citrus, citrus zest, pineapple, and guava aromas. A very soft carbonation and silky-smooth mouthfeel make for a juicy, easy drinking tropical IPA that has lower perceived bitterness but loads of fruit flavor that finishes with a delicate hint of resiny pine.
