Accuracy & Detail

We make it simple to get exactly the malt you need — sold by the ounce or by the pound. Each variety is weighed with precision to a 0.08-ounce tolerance and double-checked to keep your recipe on target.

How We Package

You also choose how we package it. Use the Recipe Selector to combine all your malts into one bag for convenience — that saves us time in packaging and we pass that savings on to you. Or select “None” if you prefer them bagged separately. And if you’d like, we’ll mill your malts at no extra cost.

Product Details

Taste & Character

Viking Black Malt is a highly roasted specialty malt with a color range of 500–600 Lovibond. It imparts deep black hues and delivers bold roasted flavors, including coffee, dark chocolate, and burnt toast. Its intensity makes it a key contributor to both flavor and appearance in dark beer styles.

Where It Shines

This malt is best suited for Stouts, Porters, and Black IPAs, where its deep color and roasted character define the style. It also enhances complexity and adds depth when blended into other malt-forward or experimental recipes that benefit from bold roasted notes.

Role in the Brewhouse

Viking Black Malt provides strong roasted flavor and color with minimal fermentable extract, making it primarily a flavor and color malt rather than a base. It contributes dryness and roasted bitterness that balance sweeter caramel or crystal malts, helping to round out rich recipes.

Brewer’s Guidance

Use Viking Black Malt sparingly—typically 1–5% of the grist—to achieve the desired level of roast intensity. Smaller additions add subtle color and dryness, while higher percentages create bold roasted character and jet-black color. Pair with caramel or chocolate malts for layered complexity in stouts and porters.

Quick Description

A highly roasted specialty malt (500–600 °L) with flavors of coffee, dark chocolate, and burnt toast. Ideal for Stouts, Porters, and Black IPAs, adding deep color, roasted complexity, and dry balance.
