The inaugural Craft Malt Month generated a lot of online buzz! Beverage trade press from across the country and regional news sources in Tennessee, California, and Colorado all shared about events and tappings. Here are a few of the highlights from September 2024.

A Malty Playlist 

Jimmy Carbone of Beer Sessions Radio, who almost always makes it into our Kernels series, compiled his maltiest stories of the year in a dedicated Craft Malt Month playlist. 

Join The Revolution

Craft Malt Month was a great time to publish stories about the craft malt revolution at large! Another usual suspect in Kernels, Don Tse, published a piece in Forbes about how craft maltsters are changing beer and farming industries. The New School Beer Blog covered the ongoing, transatlantic partnership between Admiral Maltings out of Alameda, CA and Crisp Malt out of Norfolk, England. 

The Craft Maltsters Guild extends a sincere thank you to all of the media who amplified Craft Malt Month in their articles, podcasts, and social media posts. We hope you’re already working on your stories for September 2025!
