Description

GABF award winning base malt.

A classic European Pilsner malt with a delicate malt sweetness that gives authentic European style lagers that extra something special. It is the perfect base for all lagers and essential for Pilsners, Helles, Marzen, Bock, Vienna Lager, etc.  

What sets Viking Malt apart is the flavor. We encourage you to try a batch side by side with whatever you are using now and see what you think. We know you are going to love the price compared to other Pilsner malts imported from Europe.   

We also have several craft breweries using this malt for light colored IPA's and it has proven to be a perfect choice for Hazys. 

Viking Malt is one of the largest malting companies in the world and the largest roaster of specialty malts. They are the main malt supplier to the famous Carlsberg brewery. Viking is not well known in the USA because they haven't had good US distribution. Because MoreBeer! and MoreBeer! Pro is directly importing thousands of tons of malt we are stoked to offer you Northern European malt quality from one of the best malting companies in the world at lower than domestic malt pricing. 

Viking Malt has 6 malthouses in areas where distinctive Nordic barley are sourced: in Halmstad, Sweden; Vordingborg, Denmark; Lahti, Finland; Panevezys, Lithuania and in Sierpc and Strzegom, Poland.  The advantage of northern European malt is lower protein levels, good kernel size, and less amount of pesticides used due to the cold winters. Viking does not source malt  from Russia.
