MALTED BARLEY(Hordeum Poaceae) This grain is the majour grain used in the brewing process.

It usually is imported from Holland and collected at the seaports in Lagos.

Transported in large mobile silo trucks.

It is brought over to Ibadan silo house to be stored in the silos for continuous availability.

SOURGHUM (Sorghum Sudanese) (malted and

unmalted) Sorghum is that popular grain used in Nigeria

(Okababa in Yoruba) often white or red for making pap and feeding birds especially pigeons.

At Nigerian breweries the main type of sorghum used is the white sorghum because we don’t want the grain colour to affect the colour of our output as fermentation doesn’t change the extract colour.

Sorghum is rich in essential carbohydrates and vitamins.

Malted sorghum is more costly than raw sorghum because of the cost of malting and transporting of malted grains.
