Sugar Creek Ye Olde Pale Ale Malt is malted in the classic British tradition! Darker than standard 2-row brewer's malt, this malt is comparable to the famous pale ale malts from a number of British maltsters. However, this one goes even slightly deeper in its toast, giving it a rich bready character that is perfect for a number of British and American style ales where a bit more of a toasted bread or biscuit character is desired. Bring out the true character of a British style ale, or add more depth to your American ales with this unique malt from Sugar Creek Malting Co!
