They provide the essential sugars for fermentation and significantly influence the final flavor, body, and color of your brew. We offer a diverse selection of fresh, high-quality base malts to help you craft exceptional beers.
Discover Our Range of Base Malts:
While 2-Row Malt and delicate Pilsner Malt are popular choices, the world of base malts extends far beyond! Explore how different base malts can shape your beer:
-
2-Row Malt: A versatile and widely used malt, providing a clean and neutral base for many beer styles.
-
Pilsner Malt: Light in color and flavor, perfect for crisp lagers and delicate ales, offering subtle sweetness.
-
Vienna Malt: Adds a touch of malty sweetness and a slightly richer, amber hue to your beer.
-
Maris Otter: A premium English barley known for its biscuity, slightly nutty flavor, ideal for traditional ales.
-
Golden Promise: Another excellent English variety, offering a rounder, sweeter malt character often favored in Scottish ales.
-
Munich Malt: Available in various Lovibond (color) levels, contributing a significant malty depth, toasty notes, and a richer color.

Wheat Malt (as a base): While often used as an adjunct, it can form the base for styles like Hefeweizen, providing a distinct bready and sometimes tangy character.
