This 6-row malt is produced from Thoroughbred barley grown in near Salisbury, NC. It makes the perfect base malt for a variety of darker styles, such as a Vienna Lager, German Alt or California Common. It has a more pronounced flavor and aroma profile than our Pale Malt, which contributes a slight nutty flavor, but allows the specialty grains to take center stage.

This 6-row malt is produced from the same Thoroughbred barley as our Heritage Malt, but is kilned at lower temperatures. These lower temperatures limit the formation of melanoidins in the finished malt and preserve enzymes. Flavor and aroma are more subdued with this product which is suitable for use in a broad array of styles ranging from lagers to Belgian ales.

This malt is produced using a variety of NC-grown hard wheat varieties such as Turkey Red or Appalachian White. Hard wheat varieties are primarily used in the artisan baking industry and deliver a stronger array of flavors than traditional soft wheats. The pronounced nutty character and rich texture of these wheats contribute to a mouth-watering Hefeweizen or White IPA recipe.

We plan to experiment with gluten free options such as buckwheat and maybe some smoked malts for the Fall of 2013 if time allows. Stay tuned!
A SUSTAINABLE APPROACH
i am the one who called brent and we talked about the kingsport oktoberfest and possibility of possibly doing 50lb bags when you are able if we can pick up. hope that that does work out because more i see on your website the more i would love to do some batches with your grains
Thanks, look us up when you are passing through and we will see what we can make happen.
Hi, I was just wondering where I could purchase your malt. I am beginning a brewery in Carrboro, NC called Steel String Brewery. We aren’t going to be active until about a year from now, but it would be great to use some true NC malt in some of our test batches.
Thanks for your inquiry. We are currently working on a distribution deal with Fifth Season Gardening/Homebrew Supply Shop…stay tuned for details!
It would be great if you could let other homebrew shops get in on wholesale pricing for different locales. For example, http://www.starbeerandwinesupplies.com
Can’t wait to brew with it!
Absolutely…we will let you know when we have product available!
