Yes the grains are malted to make beer and spirits The maltster is the expert person responsible that this is done properly or the subsequent brew or distillation will be poor

A Maltster
Malting is the controlled germination of cereals, followed by a termination of this natural process by the application of heat. Further heat is then applied to 'kiln' the grain and produce the required flavour and colour. The malted barley is used to brew beer.
