Description
The darkest caramel malt in the line, used more as a seasoning than a filler. Small additions throw a dark-reddish tint and bring refined nut and caramel complexity to porters, stouts and dark ales, while body and head retention improve alongside. Drum-caramelized, with no enzymic contribution.
