Unique de-husked roasted barley malt provides aroma, color and body, with a mild, smooth flavor. By removing the husk, the maltsters have created malt designed to deliver full flavors without the acridness produced by the husk. Like the other Carafa’s, Carafa II has become a favorite among craft brewers for Stouts, Porters, Schwarzbiers, DoppleBocks, Imperial styles and any other variety of darker beers, especially in styles requiring less bitterness provided by the grain.
