Specialty Malts

Briess - divider line

There are ales. There are lagers. And then there are those specialty beers that, well, just don't quite fit either category.

Specialty malts are kinda like that. They're not just roasted. They're not just kilned. They don't quite fit either category. But the special processing they receive put them, like their specialty beer cousins, in a class by themselves! So we simply call them our Specialty Malts.

Complex flavors and aromas are the mark of Specialty Malts. Whether you're looking to add a subtle hint of complexity to an ESB or a screaming bold flavor to your stout, specialty malts may be the answer. Use a little. Use a lot. You decide. Because when it comes to specialty malts, like specialty beers, rules don't apply!

Prunes
This intense 2-Row specialty malt is not for the faint of heart. It contributes distinctive flavors associated with darker, high gravity beers like Doppelbock. Even used at small quantities, you'll find it lives up to its name and delivers something "extra special" to your biggest, maltiest brews.

3.7 Rye DP 105. Another uniquely-Briess specialty malt, Rye Malt isn't just for rye beer styles. Although brewing a traditional rye beer is exceptionally rewarding, try adding Rye Malt to light- and medium-colored and flavored beers for complexity. Or fire up your new distillery and use it to make a single malt whiskey.
