Gladfield Vienna Malt is a premium malt that delivers a delicate, biscuity sweetness and a warm, golden color. Its subtle maltiness makes it a perfect choice for Vienna lagers, Marzen, and Oktoberfest styles. It can also add depth to pale ales and light lagers, providing a smooth, well-rounded base for your brews.
Sub-Base Malt
Gladfield’s Vienna Malt is made using a blend of winter and spring barley varieties with a higher nitrogen content. Our germination and kilning results in a sweeter, malty character with a golden to orange colouring that is slightly darker than our Ale Malt. Vienna Malt imparts hints of toasts or biscuit malt aromas and flavours to the finished beer.
Due to its light colour, Vienna Malt is very versatile and complements a wide range of other malts. Our Vienna Malt has a Kiwi twist but still has the usual characteristics of typical Vienna Malt and is ideal for brewing darker lagers or Märzen style beers.
We have found our Vienna Malt combines particularly well with our Gladiator Malt and Toffee Malt, and gives a big white head and a lovely golden colour to make a very drinkable session beer.
Use: A sweet malty character and light toast malt flavour. Perfect for a Vienna lager or a Märzen style beer.
Rate: Up to 100%
Packaging options: 1kg, 5kg, 25kg.
