malted barley
Beer's germinated seed
Malted barley is barley grain that has been soaked, allowed to germinate, then dried with heat to stop the process.
This converts starches to sugars, making the grain suitable for brewing beer and distilling whiskey.
The degree of roasting affects color and flavor—pale malts for lagers, darker malts for stouts and porters.
