Floor Plan

The uniqueness of these malts lies in the special way the barley was germinated and then kilned in conformity with the highest quality standards. These specialty malts add a pronounced grainy malty flavour and give a richer colour to many beer styles. Depending on the specialty malt used a broad spectrum of aromas can be attained like those of fresh bread, nuts or fruits.
