Brewer notes

Brown Malt is a British grain reference. Toasty speciality malt that builds biscuit, bread-crust and dry malt character, with biscuit character noted for this reference. Useful for adding malt complexity to British ales, amber beers and darker styles without relying only on crystal malt. Additional catalogue guidance: source maximum-in-grist guidance 10%.
