By applying a wide range of germination, kilning, stewing, crystallization, and drum roasting applications, we deliver malt with personality. Murphy & Rude Malting is a hand-in-glove supplier of fresher, more flavorful ingredients closer to home. With batch flexibility that comes with 200-ton annual capacity, our small scale positions us as the perfect partner in the creative process that fuels innovation in craft beer and spirits.
