How to use it

Where a brown ale or mild needs colour and a hint of roast without any harshness.

Belongs in

  • Dark Mild
  • British Brown Ale
  • English Porter

Buying it

Buy it whole and crush it on brew day if you can. Milled malt goes stale within weeks, and a stale base malt is the most common reason a beer with no obvious fault still tastes of nothing. Store it cool, dry and sealed against insects.
