While hops get all the glory in the beer world, here’s an exploration of the “other” beer ingredient: malt. Admiral Maltings was founded in 2017 by a couple of local brewing legends, Dave McLean (Magnolia) and Ron Silberstein (ThirstyBear), along with Curtis Davenport who had experience in local farming and malting. Admiral Maltings is the first modern craft malting house in California.

For this event, we will pour on draft a variety of beers from differnt breweries whose common factor is their use of Admiral Malts. We will be joined by founder Dave McLean and others, with malts to sample.

Chef Raiden will also be doing some food specials made with Admiral Malts.
