Heidelberg
BEST Heidelberg is made using special, two-row barley variety that tends to create less color during the malting process. BEST Heidelberg is suited to particularly pale beers. The malt has a slightly lower protein content than a classic Pilsen Malt from the corresponding crop year, but with a high extract value and very high enzyme activity. BEST Heidelberg complies with the purity guidelines of the German Reinheitsgebot.
