Description
The palest of the GoldSwaen caramel drum malts, gently treated so it lifts sweetness, body and foam without moving the beer’s color much. Soft toffee and round malt sugars make it a quiet filler for pale lagers and session ales. Extract and moisture are published as minimum and maximum limits; diastatic power is zero, as with all drum-caramelized malts.
