When you need a high performing well balanced malt to complement your big hops, look no further than Golden Promise. It gives beautiful mouthfeel to bring balance to beers with even the gutsiest hops. And when you drop the gravity for a session beer, you won’t lose out on body.

This gives the biggest base of any malt without adding colour, resulting in exceptional beers. Just ask any of our award winning customers who use Golden Promise – the results speak for themselves

“No other malt gives the same exceptional flavour to our beers that Golden Promise provides, and that’s why we’ve used it for over 40 years.”

— Andy Leman, Head Brewer, Timothy Taylor & Co Ltd

I love Simpsons Malt! Their high quality standards and solid portfolio make them a great option when I’m designing recipes. I regularly stock their Crystal malts and Roasted malts, but my favourite might just be their Golden Promise. When used as the featured malt, It finishes clean and provides a malty sweetness that is a perfect backdrop for many beer styles. It’s especially good for providing balance in hop forward beers.

“ At Russian River we use multiple types of Simpsons Malt. They have a depth of flavour that enhances the mouthfeel on our beers, especially those that are lower in alcohol. Simpsons Malt have some of my favourite malts to brew with.”

Since 1862, when James Parker Simpson founded his first maltings in Alnwick, Northumberland, Simpsons Malt has been a family business. Today, the 5th generation drives the brand forward, together with father, Simon Simpson OBE. And, as an independent, family-run business we invest in those areas of the business where we see room for improvement or innovation.

Simpsons Malt operates two maltings in the United Kingdom, which combine to produce more than 250,000 tonnes of malt per year that is delivered across the globe.

Both maltings are strategically located in prime barley growing regions in the north and south of the country and serve our diverse range of customers in the distilling, brewing and food industries.

Whether you’re a brewer looking to add a certain special something to a new and innovative beer, or a distiller on the hunt for an infinitely complex and subtle taste, as specialist malt suppliers we’ve got the perfect range of malts to meet your needs.

Our malts are renowned for their exceptional taste and flavour, with the care and attention-to-detail we display during our processes helping to craft high-quality malts for some of the world’s best brewers and distillers.

But that care doesn’t just start when the grains of barley arrive at our malting sites. With an agricultural merchanting division, McCreath Simpson & Prentice (MSP), built into the business, it starts right back with seed supply and production at our seed plant.

Malt is the backbone to any great beer recipe, ensuring you have the best quality freshest malt can really improve your brews.

Our malt comes from the same maltsers that professional breweries use. All of our malt is purchased whole/uncrushed, which ensures that it retains the correct moisture levels as the maltster intended.

When you order malt from The Malt Miller we offer it crush fresh, or whole so you can crush it fresh at home using your own mill, or fine crushed for Brew In A Bag brewing. When we crush it for you it is done only when ordered, this ensures you can be sure of freshness and also receive the correct mix of big and small particles.

Your can order malt in 25kg sacks where we also offer the option to have it bagged in 5x5kg, by weight starting at 50g, or by building your own recipe on our Recipe Generator by the exact gram.
