This is our diverse range of high-quality kilned Swaen© malts, crafted from the finest European 2-row spring barley. They serve as the main ingredient for virtually any beer style — from Pilsner, Lager and Ale to IPA, Blonde, Tripel, and even Porter or Stout.
While each malt offers its own unique aroma and colour, they all share one defining trait: Swaen malts form the foundation of every great beer you want to brew.
Swaen© Lager
Our lightest malt is gently kilned to preserve its delicate character. Swaen© Lager malt is easy to work with and can be mashed using a simple single-temperature infusion, making it a reliable choice for brewers. It offers a clean, light, and slightly sweet malt flavour.
Swaen© Pilsner
Swaen Pilsner is the obvious choice for your base malt. The strong cereal flavour is the base of this product, while still allowing specialty malts to come through.
Swaen© Dutch Pilsner
Swaen© Dutch Pilsner malt is 100% Dutch – from the carefully selected local barley to the malting expertise rooted in the Netherlands. It’s the ideal foundation for your brew and a natural choice for your base malt. Dutch craftsmanship in every batch.
Swaen© Ale
Swaen© Ale malt is carefully kilned at a higher temperature, giving it a rich character that enhances palate fullness and body. Its robust yet balanced profile works in perfect harmony with our specialty malts, adding depth and complexity to your brews.
Dutch Pale Ale
This local Dutch Pale Ale malt is crafted from 100% Dutch barley, grown in collaboration with local farmers. Produced through the Growing The Swaen project, it allows us to trace every step – from field to malt – ensuring transparency and quality control.
Swaen© Vienna
Swaen Vienna can be used 100% to make traditional Vienna Lager. It’s often used to increase body and improve palate fullness. It renders maltiness and has a smooth profile.
Swaen© Munich Light
Swaen Munich Light provides the basis of many beers. It’s known to enhance body, head and aroma of any beer. This malt provides a distinct malty flavour and enhances the colour.
Swaen© Munich Dark
Swaen© Munich Dark delivers even deeper, richer colours to your beer. Its robust profile adds a distinct malty flavour that enhances both aroma and taste. In addition to its flavour contribution, it creates a fuller, more satisfying mouthfeel.
Swaen© Amber
Swaen© Amber malt is the obvious choice when you’re looking to add both colour and character. Whether you’re brewing a Pale Ale, a rich Lager, or something experimental, this versatile malt enhances every style with its deep golden hue and layered flavour profile.
Swaen© Melany
Swaen© Melany malt is a unique malt that brings a warm, inviting flavour profile reminiscent of freshly baked goods. Think golden cookies, toasted nuts, and hints of biscuit – rich, comforting notes that add depth and complexity to your beer.
Swaen© Wheat Classic
This is essential in making excellent wheat beers. Swaen Wheat Classic can also be added to barley-based beers, to give them a fuller mouthfeel and enhanced head stability.
Swaen© Wheat Dark
As the name implies, this malt is darker than Swaen Wheat Classic. It is perfect for specialty wheat beers and enriching barley malt based beers.
Swaen© Spelt
Add a little spice to your beer. Swaen Spelt is related to wheat. This malt contains more protein, but less gluten. Expect to find some nice spicy notes with a touch of hazelnut.
Swaen© Rye
Swaen Rye imparts a distinctive spicy, earthy, and slightly fruity flavour. It can contribute to a beer’s body and mouthfeel, providing a slightly viscous texture.
Swaen© Naked Oat
Swaen Naked Oat malt enhances body and flavour, while producing unmistakable texture and silkiness you can only get from oats. This huskless malt can create haze in lighter beers.
