What We Make.

At Blue Ox Malthouse, we combine modern technology with traditional floor malting methods and regionally produced grains to create consistent, unique, quality malts. We follow the highest quality standards using in-house and ASBC approved methods on all from field to finished product. Check back; we are constantly working to expand our product line.

Pale

Our clean, crisp Pale has mild sweet and grainy flavors and aromas and is fully modified for high extract and enzyme potential. Made from 2-row Newdale barley, our Pale elevates lighter styles like Kolsch, Blondes, Pales, Pilsners and as a foundational malt for any style. 1.8-2.4 SRM.

Wheat

Our lightly kilned Wheat malt provides flavors and aromas of sweet cereals along with light color and high extract. Maybe our favorite malt to see on the germination floor! 2-2.5 SRM.

Dark Munich

Darker color, more intense toasty flavors and aromas come with our melanoidin-rich Dark Munich, along with notes of graham crackers and biscuits. 10-12 SRM.
