🌾 NEW BEER RELEASE: Prairie Pioneer Kernza! 🍻

We just tapped Prairie Pioneer, our brand-new Kernza beer—just in time for our Beer & Biodiversity event with @greatrivergreening and @cargill 🌾 Even @riverrockkitchenandbakingco got in on the fun by baking up some bagels and chocolatey goodness using Kernza flour!

This brew is indeed sumpin special. It features raw & medium-roasted Kernza, a perennial grain developed by the University of Minnesota to make farming more efficient & sustainable. Since Kernza grows back year after year, it reduces costs for farmers and improves topsoil quality.

While still new to the market, Kernza has found success in brewing, bringing a unique, subtly nutty & bready flavor to beer. Prairie Pioneer uses 15% Kernza in the grain bill, creating a crisp, smooth beer most similar to an American Blonde Ale with a 5.1% ABV & low IBU.

🍺 Best served in a Nonic glass—on tap NOW! Stop in, grab a pint, and taste this sustainable brew for yourself. 🌾🍻
