With its mild toast hints and gently roasted aroma, Black Swaen© Chocolate Wheat malt is an excellent choice for dark beers, adding complexity and a subtle richness that enhances every sip. This wheat malt has no husk, resulting in a smoother, less bitter flavour compared to its barley counterpart. Because of this, it’s an ideal alternative to dehusked roasted barley malt for brewers seeking depth without harshness.
Its smooth character complements malty backbones, helping brewers create balanced, full-bodied stouts, porters, or dark ales. And while it’s perfect for wheat beers, its versatility goes far beyond that. You can use it to enhance the flavour, colour, and body of many other beer styles – from rich lagers to creative speciality brews.
At the same time, this versatile malt can be used to intensify the colour of virtually any beer. Whether you want a deeper amber in an ale or a richer hue in a lager, Black Swaen© Chocolate Wheat malt adds visual impact while contributing delicate flavour nuances – making it a practical and flavourful tool for brewers seeking both beauty and taste.
