Amber Malt

Amber is often used by brewers to produce a ‘Traditional I.P.A.’ which has a distinctively flavoured golden beer with a full dry palate.

Amber Malt

Freshly kilned malt is transferred to our small batch roasting drum. The malt is gradually raised in temperature to an optimal point where it is held to achieve the desired colour. Our classic rare English Amber Malt is extremely versatile and enjoyed by brewers of fine dark ales, porters and stouts. 

French and Jupp’s Amber Malt displays rich roast coffee notes working in harmony with heavy layers of caramel, maple syrup, muscovado sugar and caramelised sugar. Characteristically for an amber malt, you will discover notes of breakfast toast and freshly baked bread crust combining with lighter notes of roasted peanut and hazelnut; and a medley of dried fruits, prune, raisin, fig and date.
