Simpson's extra dark crystal is a beautiful, deeply colored crystal malt that does all the things standard crystal malts do...but better! Simpson's extra dark crystal can be used to add residual sweetness, dark dried fruit and caramel flavor and aroma, body and head retention to beers. It works wonderfully in British beer styles, such as bitters, pale ales, IPAs, milds, porters and many others, but will work whenever a deep crystal malt is called for. It will contribute a dark amber tint to beers that increases as a higher percentage is used in the grist. A wonderful crystal malt that is highly recommended!
