Brewing / Base Malts

Lager / Pilsner Malt

Low colour, high performance. This malt is fully modified, gently kilned for pale beers where a clean base is essential. Ideal for lagers and hop-forward ales where malt character is subtle but refined.

A low colour malt, made from two-row malting barley, fully modified with long germination times and then kilned at lower temperatures. Ideal for making lagers and low coloured ales, particularly if the resulting beer does not want to have a pronounced malty flavours and typically be dominated by hop character.
