 Malt (or germinated barley) is the indispensable ingredient in beer. Because it determines the taste of the beer, it must be of a superior quality. So, Stella Artois' master brewers select only the best barley from Belgium, France, the Netherlands, Germany, England and Denmark.

 Once the barley is chosen, it is allowed to germinate slowly, at an ideal combination of low temperature, darkness and controlled humidity. Machinery turns the barley three times a day, letting it breathe and ensuring the sprouts don't tangle. After less than a week, the process is halted and the green malt is laid out to dry on a device that allows hot air to pass through it. The drying temperature determines the taste and color of the beer. The higher the temperature, the darker the beer. The malt for a Pilsner is dried at 80 Deg C.

 Germinated Barley is the dried germinated ripe fruit of Hordeum vulgare L. (Fam.Gramineae).
