BESTMALZ · Flavour and use
The use of BEST Vienna results in a full golden beer color, excellent foaming and a pleasant, full-bodied taste in the final beer. Unlike BEST Heidelberg, this malt uses two-row malting barley varieties that form more coloring substances during the malting process. The protein content is slightly higher than in a Pilsen malt from the same harvest, with comparable enzyme content and high extract values. For Export, Märzen, Porter as well as all other specialty beers.
