Spices and botanicals have been used in brewing for centuries, adding complexity, depth, and unique aromas to beer. Whether enhancing traditional styles like Belgian Witbier, Gruit, and Winter Warmers or experimenting with new flavors in IPAs, stouts, and saisons, these ingredients allow brewers to craft truly distinctive beers.
Our Brewing Spices & Botanicals collection includes a wide range of specialty ingredients to enhance your next batch. Citrus peels, such as bitter and sweet orange peel or lemon peel, provide bright, zesty flavors perfect for wheat beers and farmhouse ales. Paradise seed (Grains of Paradise) offers subtle peppery and citrus notes, often found in Belgian and spiced beers. Licorice root and star anise contribute a smooth, slightly sweet and herbal depth, ideal for darker, malt-forward styles. Heather tips and juniper berries bring floral, earthy, and pine-like flavors, often featured in historical or Nordic-inspired brews.
These spices and botanicals can be used in boil additions, secondary fermentation, or even tinctures, depending on the intensity and extraction method desired. Whether you're brewing a traditional spice-infused ale or experimenting with new flavor combinations, our selection provides endless possibilities for creative and complex brews.
