Roasted malt Hefe (just roast the wheat)

Pale Stout (roast the shit out of pale malt)

Smoked Fruit beer (Dates)

What do you guys think would be weird, but possibly delicious?


As in just roasting the malt in the same way you would to make chocolate or black malt, which is what you use in a stout?

Alrighty cool, there have actually been some pale stouts made in Britian in the past, but I personally havnt had any.

Basically the malt profile of a beer is down to how long the malt has been roasted for. All beers(like 99.999%) of beers start with a pale malt base, but beers like stouts and porters have the additions of darker malts which have essentially just been roasted for longer.(all malt has to be roasted a bit just to stop germination and crystalise the starch sugers)

Its an interesting subject to read into and makes sampling beers even more interesting as you can start to see what processes have produced the flavours.

That never stopped anyone from making a barrel-aged Imperial Stout...
