BEST Munich Dark creates intense beers full of flavor with a prominent malty body and bright dark color. The special malting process ensures high solubility without sacrificing the malt’s positive taste and aromatic properties. This enzyme-rich malt can be used in high concentrations in the grist without compromising quality, typically by lowering the temperature during mashing. BEST Munich Dark complies with the German Beer Purity Law "Reinheitsgebot".
