Black Forest Rye – Gladfield

Speciality Malt

Think of Shepherds Delight Malt, now open your mind to the possibility to brew a beer with the same great attributes that Shepherds Delight Malt offer (red colour, malty, currant and fruit cake flavours) using Rye as the grain.

The possibilities are huge. Add spiciness to Old Ales, add complexity to ESB, Pale Ales, you name it.

And guess what, no one in the world produces anything like this malt, so you are you in for a treat.
