Amber Malt

The lightest of our roasted malts, Amber offers both toasted and biscuity notes. Whilst bringing a dark reddish brown hue to beer colour, it has less sweetness than some roasted other malts with a residual crisp dryness in terms of mouthfeel. A versatile roasted malt, you could consider this the Brut of the IPAs.
