Where It Shines

This malt is an excellent choice for brewing Pilsners, Kölsch, Pale Ales, Blonde Ales, and other light or hop-forward styles. Its delicate sweetness and pale color make it particularly effective in recipes that call for clarity, brightness, and refined balance.

Brewer’s Guidance

Use this malt as 100% of the grist for clean and delicate beer styles, or combine with specialty malts to add depth while maintaining brightness.
