Explore Briess Malts from Gnome Brew—premium base and specialty grains from one of America’s oldest family-owned maltsters. Founded in the late 1800s by Ignatius Briess in the former Czechoslovakia and later re-established in Wisconsin, Briess Malt & Ingredients Co. has grown into a cornerstone of U.S. craft brewing. Now in its fifth generation of family operation, Briess produces a broad range of malts with precision, consistency, and a focus on sustainable, non-GMO ingredients.
This collection includes base malts like 2-Row, Pale Ale, and Pilsen for dependable performance, caramel and crystal malts for rich sweetness and color, and roasted or smoked malts—such as Chocolate, Black, and Cherrywood Smoked—for depth and complexity. Every Briess malt reflects over a century of expertise in quality and flavor development, giving homebrewers reliable, American-made ingredients for recipes of every style and scale.
