Weyermann® Beech Smoked Barley Malt is a specialty malt produced from high-quality German spring barley that has been carefully smoked over beech wood. This traditional process, originating in Bamberg—the heart of smoked beer culture—infuses the malt with a rich, robust smoky flavor, accompanied by subtle notes of honey and vanilla. With a color range of 2.0 to 3.5 °Lovibond (4.0–8.0 EBC), this malt is pale in appearance but deep in flavor, making it an ideal ingredient for a wide range of beer styles.
