There is nothing more we love than talking to brewers and distillers so if you have any questions, or would like to arrange a call with a member of our team, please feel free to get in touch – we would love to hear from you!

English Pilsner
Hana Malt is named after where the barley originates from, the Hana valley in Czech Moravia. It was used to produce the very first Pilsner beers back in the 1840s in Bohemia and became the progenitor for the vast majority of successful lager barley varieties to this day.
It brings that perfect bready, crisp continental flavour to all lager types, especially Pilsners and Helles beers. This will promote fantastic head retention. Hana Malt is exceptionally pale in colour. It can be used in a single temperature infusion mash or a step temperature mash, however, this depends on the crop results and so it’s worth checking with the Crisp Technical Support Team as to the current condition.
