    Gladiator Malt is a malt specially developed to provide extra foaming stability, mouth feel and body to the beer with out adding too much colour. Like crystal malts Gladiator has a high amount of unfermentable sugars. These unfermentable sugars will help increase the final gravity and improve beer stability. The final processing of the malt has been done in such a way to reduce colour build up. Because of this Gladiator has proved very popular for use in a wide range of beer styles.

    Formulated by Gladfield to act as a direct substitute for Weyermann Carapils.

    Shepherds Delight is a stepped up version of Gladfield Aurora malt. It has intense bready, toasted and kola flavour with a lingering fruity sweetness. This malt should be used sparingly to supercharge the maltiness of a beer and will give flavours similar to a decoction mash. Used at too high a concentration could lead to bitterness in the final beer. We recommend combining Shepherds Delight with Gladfield Vienna malt to give a balancing sweetness. This malt will give a stunning red hue to your beers.

    Red Back Malt is a unique malt made by Gladfield. It is prepared by a special process before going into the roaster, where it is roasted to favour certain maillard reactions which cause the malt to produce a lovely red hue in the resulting beer without the opalescence that can occur with other similar malts. In other words the wort colour is bright with good clarity but most of all a lovely red colour. It goes well with Gladfield Pale Ale and Aurora malt which is melanoidin malt.
