Finest Lager Malt

Finest Lager Malt is a premium, low-colour malt (max 3.5 °EBC) crafted for clean, crisp and delicate lagers.

With a light, straw-coloured hue and a soft, bready malt sweetness, it provides a balanced, neutral base that allows subtle yeast and hop characteristics to shine.

Its high modification and excellent enzymatic power ensure efficient mash conversion, making it a reliable choice for both traditional and modern lager styles, including Pilsners, Helles, Kölsch and light Continental-style beers.

Finest Lager lacks the richer malt character of Best Pale Ale or Maris Otter, offering a leaner, more delicate profile suited to highly attenuated, refreshing beers. If you're crafting a beer where crispness and subtlety are key, this malt provides the perfect foundation.
