Default 2 row - Briess or Malteurop

Getting ready to try BIAB. Have done only extract kits to date. After trying a batch or two, want to look into buying ingredients in bulk. My options for a 50 pound sack at LHBS’s for 2 row are Malteurop or Breiss. Both within a couple bucks on price. Does anyone who has used both have an opinion on one over the other? Will be doing mostly pale ales, IPAs, amber ales, and things along those lines.
Thanks!

Breiss 2-row is a little sweeter than most 2-row imo. Ive used Rahr (domestic) and much prefer that, Great Western (domestic), or Crisp (English) to Breiss. Breiss is a fine malt and can be used to make most american ale styles with perfectly acceptable results. Either will work for what you are saying you want to brew most.

Edit: Just looked into Malteurop and I would def go that route provided price point difference isn't huge.

Malteurop
I am not a fan of Breiss base malt. I have had much better luck with Rahr.

Out of those malteurop. I hear less then stellar things about Briess but I have used malteurop and it worked for me and the beers turned out great.

Thanks for the feedback. Think I'll go with Malteurop. Not a lot of love for the Briess.
