I have the pale malt and light Munich on hand from a grain buy-in. I recently did a duval tribute that came very well. I wanna do a blonde ale with the pale malt.very bready and flavorful; looking forward to dona dopplebock with the light Munich.
There is very little review info on the web about it but all there is is favorable. Thanks for the input. I think I'll go ahead with enough to duplicate my Castle blend Svetly and compare the two.

I think you wont be disappointed; i put the light Munich in apa that gave a nice malty backbone that held up to a very aggressive hopping sechdule. Pull yhr trigger, homes!

I see that it's "The Swaen" and it's from Holland. Pretty cool WEBSITE. I'll keep it in mind.

Interesting. $53 to my door for the pilsner. I would have a hard time getting a price that good locally. I might order a sack of the pils for that price and throw some other things on my order that I need... lactic acid, whirfloc, flaked corn, noble hops, Munich 2, etc. Thanks Chils.Here's the pils for $37/55LB.

Crazy cheap right? Even their calcium chloride and gypsum are cheap. Wish shipping was a little better to me.

Everything on their site is priced really well. Hops, grains, etc. I just placed an order and got a pound of assorted hops, the Swaen pilsner malt (55 lbs) and everything I mentioned above and it was just a tick over $100 for the whole thing including shipping. Some of their hops are less than $1.50 an ounce. Never ordered from them before... thanks for the tip. Also... really looking forward to trying the Swaen malt after looking at their site.Crazy cheap right? Even their calcium chloride and gypsum are cheap. Wish shipping was a little better to me.

We have a 10 bbl 3 vessel system and brew into 30bbl fermenters. We have been using Swaen Pils and Pale for over a year and love it. The flavor is comparable to any other Continental Pils. We Used Avangard and Best and many others but have switched entirely to Swaen Base malt. We also like several of their specialty malts but are just starting to experiment with most of them. I don't think you will be disappointed with Swaen Malts.
Thread is HERE. I found out this morning that my shipment from Label Peelers is arriving on Wednesday. They're very quick over there. I might have to make them my NEW online supplier.

Chils: Not sure if you saw this but I found a thread on ProBrewer about the Swaen Malts:

I did read that thread when searching for reviews on Swaen. Might be good stuff.

I think I'll use it first in a helles where the malt would shine through. I have a Dunkel, a Festbier and a Helles on the schedule and I have some other pilsner malts (Rahr, Dingemans) and I'll use those for the other beers. The Helles would showcase the Swaen malt well, I think. Cheers.

By the way... it's The Swaenâ„¢. Not just Swaen.

Man those "Teh Swaen" folks are letter wasters. They must think letters are unlimited or something. I think Imma call them swan from now on-just to show them how letter-wasteful they are.
I may order a few pounds and try it out. I'm tempted to do the exact recipe I have on tap right now to compare Swaen and Castle malts. Helles is tempting tho and I do have that MJ Bavarian yeast here. Hmmm...

Yeah, and why are they so wasteful on the letters? Do you think it's pronounced SWAIN? SWINE? SWAN?

Considering the logo is a swan, I'm gonna say swan. They have to spell it all fancy-pants like, but hell, everyone hates the Dutch.
