Raking of green malt is essential to the production of quality floor malt. The typical final step in the malting process is to dry (kiln) the green malt to preserve it for brewing. As both a malt house and a brewery we have the unique opportunity to make beer from green (unkilned) malt, eliminating the energy consumption associated with kilning. Kilning of malt produces toasty & biscuity notes you find in malty beers. This beer, made from unkilned (green) malt, has a markedly different flavour profile that provides a perfect base for aromatic and citrus hops. RAKED honours the lost art of raking malt.
