Barley Production, Barley Nutrient Content, and Quality of Malting Barley in Western Canada 2020
Quality data for individual malting barley varieties
CDC Copeland
CDC Copeland has remained the dominant malting barley variety grown in Western Canada in 2020. Its excellent brewing characteristics, combined with lower protein and enzyme levels than AC Metcalfe, provide an excellent balance within the portfolio of malting barley varieties.

AAC Synergy
The popularity of AAC Synergy on the Prairies significantly increased in 2020 with acreage exceeding that of AC Metcalfe. AAC Synergy is a newer high-yielding variety that is characterized by relatively high kernel weight and plumpness, and relatively low grain protein content. AAC Synergy has a desirable malting quality profile with high malt extract, good protein modification, low levels of wort β-glucans, and intermediate levels of starch-degrading enzymes. Overall, AAC Synergy’s excellent combination of agronomic traits and malting quality makes it a desirable two-rowed malting barley variety for western Canadian producers and the malting and brewing industry.
