BriesSweet(tm) Brown Rice Syrup
to debut at 2003 IFT in Chicago

July 12, 2003--Briess Ingredients Company will introduce BriesSweet(tm) Brown Rice Syrup as the newest ingredient in its line of all natural whole grain sweeteners at this year's IFT Food Expo in Chicago. BriesSweet Brown Rice Syrup is available in four converstion types—26 DE, 42 DE, 43 DE High Maltose, and 60 DE. It is also available as certified organic.

BriesSweet Brown Rice Syrup was developed and is being produced at a new, state-of-the-art plant in Chilton, Wisconsin. High quality, fully automated production and testing equipment assures consistent and repeatable product. Large plant capacity assures availability. While BriesSweet is new, the company has been making malt and malt extracts since the 1880s. Briess is the only vertically integrating malting company in North America. Its current lines of malt extracts are marketed under the brands CBW(r) and Maltoferm(r) and number more than a baker's dozen. The malt extract styles range from very light and mild flavored, to black and strong flavored.

The versatility and capabilities of the new plant enabled the development of BriesSweet, a product the company had began researching more than a decade ago.

BriesSweet Brown Rice Syrup is a natural sweetener that enhances the wholesome appeal of bars, granola, baked goods, breakfast cereals, functional beverages, sauces and confections.
