Great Western Malting The Heart of Your Craft. Cheers!

For 80 years, it has been our honor to be at the heart of craft brewing by creating the world's best malt exclusively from Northwest-grown barley. We share the passion of our brewing and distilling customers of crafting award-winning beer and spirits for discerning consumers across the globe. Whether its your friend's home brew, a pint from your favorite pub, or an all-American lager you are enjoying during the "big game," it's likely you're enjoying our malt too.

Ever wonder what happens inside the germ house? 🌱🌾
This is where barley officially starts waking up. Shawn Maynard, Plant Manager at Great Western Malting, takes us inside the germ house to show us where germination happens and how this important step helps turn barley into malt.

🌾 Harvest day from the best seat in the field.
Not a bad office view! Ride along inside the combine during harvest and hear why this is the best time of year. We’re proud to work with growers who help supply Great Western Malting.

Before there’s malt, there’s barley. Before there’s barley, there’s someone willing to spend their life growing it. Meet Dillon VanOrden of Garth VanOrden Farms in Idaho.
 
For more than 20 years, Dillon has been growing barley with the same goal every season: producing the highest quality crop for the people who depend on it.
 
The work of farmers often happens quietly, but it’s the foundation of everything we do at Great Western Malting and CMG. We’re grateful to partner with local growers whose passion, experience, and stewardship help bring exceptional malt to brewers and distillers around the world.
 
A special thank you to Garth VanOrden Farms Garth VanOrden Farms for trusting us to carry your barley forward and share the story behind every harvest. 

(And of course, we can’t forget Otis, Dillon’s four-legged farmhand. 🐾)
