Malt for Breweries: Consistent Quality, Trusted Supply from Charles Faram [UK]

At Charles Faram, we’ve built a reputation on supplying breweries with ingredients that deliver performance, consistency, and flavour, and that extends beyond hops. Our range of malts for breweries reflects the same standards that have defined our business since 1865: trusted suppliers, strong technical support, and reliable service.

Whether you’re brewing traditional British ales, hop-forward modern styles, or exploring continental lager profiles, the right malt foundation is essential. We offer a comprehensive portfolio of base and specialty malts from leading UK and international maltsters, giving brewers the flexibility and quality they need to produce exceptional beer, batch after batch.

A Carefully Selected Range of Malts

We work closely with a trusted network of malt producers – Castle, Crisp and Weyermann® –  to offer a balanced and versatile selection of malts tailored for professional brewing. Our range includes:

  • Pale and Extra Pale Ale Malts – consistent extract and colour, ideal for core ranges
  • Pilsner and Lager Malts – clean, low colour and high enzymatic potential
  • Vienna and Munich Malts – for deeper body and malt aroma
  • Crystal and Caramel Malts – adding colour, sweetness, and head retention
  • Roasted and Chocolate Malts – for porter, stout, and complex dark beer styles
  • Wheat, Rye, and Specialty Grains – for mouthfeel, haze, or stylistic complexity

We also offer organic and low-colour options, and can assist with sourcing specific malt specs on request.
