130° L Briess Malting - Extra Special Malt is a hybrid drum roasted malt with a very different flavor compared to Caramel Malt 120L. The unique drum roasting process produces a wide array of flavors including a combination of both caramel and dry roasting. This unique malt helps develop  complex flavors often associated with darker, high gravity beers like Doppelbock and adds complex flavors in Abbey styles and in darker styles like dry Irish Stouts and Porters. Also good for, mid to dark, Belgian style ales.
