Roasted Barley malt from Thomas Fawcett is a dark grain that is traditionally used in the production of stouts and other dark beers. It is made from unmalted barley, which is roasted to achieve its characteristic dark color and robust flavor. This malt imparts a rich, roasted coffee-like flavor and aroma, along with a deep, reddish-brown to black color to the beer.
