Flavour and description
Viking Caramel Pale Malt is produced from green malt. Despite the low color value, Caramel Pale is true caramel malt, i.e. the starch has been gelatinized and saccharified within the kernel. Caramel Pale is sweet and caramel-like, with also toffee and fruity notes. The enzymatic activity of Caramel Pale is negligible. Viking Caramel Pale is used to produce a full-bodied beer with a clean, round flavor. Due to its low color value it is also suitable for light-colored beers. The dosage rate is typically up to 30%.
