Base Malt

Sunset Pale

Sunset Pale is a special base malt made from premium 2-row barley and moderately kilned to develop a warm, toasty character with a pronounced grainy depth not typically found in standard base malts. It offers a gentle richness that evokes a golden-amber harvest sunset, making it an ideal choice for beers with slightly deeper colour and any style that benefits from a smooth, flavourful foundation.

Use it up to 100% to add complexity, contrast, and malt expression without overshadowing hops or fermentation character.
