In a nutshell (or should we say oat husk?) Honey Malted Oats are malted oats with an enriched flavor profile and deeper color. This gives brewers the ability to subtly shift the sensory profile of a typical hazy IPA with unique flavor, or to add a layer of nuance to stout and other oat-incorporating beer styles.
Flavor Profile & Characteristics
Honey Malted Oats feature strong bready, grainy, and sweet notes, characteristics thousands of brewers who use Gambrinus Honey Malt will already be familiar with. However, Honey Malted Oats’ darker color, sweetness, and ability to build body set it apart from other malted oats on the market. When used at up to 20% of the malt bill, Honey Malted Oats’ high beta glucan levels add body and silky mouthfeel – perfect for hazy and New England-style IPAs, but it also works great for a wide range of stouts or lower-gravity ales like mild, brown, and porter. Another benefit of Gambrinus Honey Malted Oats is they retain their husks, so no need to add rice hulls for lautering. So, if you’re looking to break the mold of a typical hazy IPA, add some refinement to a stout, or if you just want to try something a little different, consider using Gambrinus Honey Malted Oats in your next brew.
