Good grain
I used it in imperial stout, so hard to say the exact contribution, but the stout was award winning

Special B is just right.
The Special B was just what i was looking for to round out my Belgian Ale recipe. I ordered it milled and was very happy with the malt. Delivery was prompt and product was well packaged. I will order from them again.
