Whether you’re looking for a base malt or something more unique, start with West Branch Malts.

Pilsner
Crisp, Clean, Local and Fresh. Our pilsner malt produces a very light straw gold wort with notes of pecans, breakfast cereal, hay, and green tea.

Pale
This malt produces a light golden color with a more developed flavor over Pilsner malt. The sweet aromas of honey, corn flakes, and sunflower seeds will be hard to ignore.

Vienna
Our Vienna malt ratchets up the malty complexity with the toasty notes of crisp crackers and bread crust while still remaining sweet and balanced.

Munich
A rich flavor and a beautiful dark golden color really sets our Munich malt apart from the rest. Malty sweetness with the aromas of fresh baked bread, roasted almonds, and toffee.

Sweet 15 Dextrin
A higher kiln temperature makes this amber hued malt really special. This malt has a very complex flavor with notes of toasted bread, biscuit, cookie, and roasted cashews.

Special 60
This malt has a very distinguishable caramelized sugar flavor and imparts notes of toasty bread, honey, lightly charred wood and graham crackers.

Ninety – Brown
Our Ninety – Brown malt will leave you speechless. The aromas of fresh brewed coffee, raisins, brown sugar, and chocolate really shine.

Caramel 15
Malty sweetness with the aromas of fresh baked bread, roasted almonds, and caramel.

Caramel 1 2 3
Kilned at high temperature, this malt creates a very dark brown wort and really packs on the flavor. Intense notes of dried fruit, dark roast coffee, fresh tobacco and burnt marshmallows.
