NOT Susan Rice.
Not even Uncle Ben’s, for that matter.
Isn’t Budweiser rice beer?
If it’s not made by fermenting barley malt, it isn’t really beer. Other things can be added, but barley malt is what makes beer beer.
I’ve been enjoying rice beer for a long time. Coors light is a rice beer.
“”The original 1516 Bavarian law governed that the only ingredients allowed were malt (germinated, dried barley), hops and water. The properties of yeast were unknown at the time, but it was later allowed, as was wheat, which was initially reserved for baking bread.””

No. Rice.
That’s like putting beans in chili.

Climate change. Baloney.
Why not use rye?
If its made from rice, its not real beer.
I’ve been working in the Coors malthouse in Golden, CO for almost 25 years. We get barley from farmers in several states. First I’d heard of this.
Just looked again.
The words, “Climate change,” is mentioned FOUR times.
In the name of their god of climate change, I think they’re trying to scare the industry.
JMHO.
Climate change has nothing to do with it. Import restrictions and global conflict are enough to explain any shortage of barley. The only way to use climate change as a reason for anything is by making it part of a list.
No.
You know what else? They say the yield per hectare which is a measure of land. If you have more yield per hectare you are using less land.
I like my beer.
My doctor say’s I drink to much of it but at my age(70) I don’t care.
My Favorite beer is Beck’s DARK!
But I can’t afford it often.
I will not drink Budweiser.
Or Coors Light, I’ll get a Seven up instead.
My daily beer is “Rolling rock”.
It is barely drinkable, but is affordable.
Flame on guys!
Our daughter is allergic to barley and soy. She can’t have beer. She enjoys wine, so it’s not been too difficult once she figured out what was the culprit for her tummy troubles.
I stopped reading at Climate Change
So barley is a cold weather crop and in danger from warmer temps and longer growing seasons?
Gosh, I'm sorry, I thought this story was about grown-ups--rather than child-slaves punching a clock and learning not to try to think in a state-run school.
Rice, millet, corn, or sorghum will make mashable sugars that get you alchol and so do the job, but they are not the same as "Liquid bread"
I occasionally have gout so I have had to stop drinking beer and using a lot of animal and fish proteins.
This is a study by University of Arkansas to solve an imaginary problem and sell Rice from Arkansas. I do not think we will run out of land to plant barley.
