How does it taste? Starchy taste, blend flavour.
What does it add to the beer? Maize malt adds mild, less malty flavour to beers and less body. It also provides a drier and crisper beer.
Typical Beer Styles: American Light Lager, Mexican Lagers, Pilsners. It is also suited for Bourbon Whisky making.
