Brewing barley is classified as either two-row or six-row, based on the arrangement of kernels on the grain's head. Great Western Malting has used both varieties, but its product is now derived from two-row barley, produced more quickly in the Pacific Northwest climate. Approximately 80% of malted barley produced in the United States is used to brew beer and distill liquors, and Great Western sought to supply malt to this vast potential market.
Great Western Malting also runs The Country Malt Group, a malt and brewing supplies warehouse and distribution system. Country Malt has warehouses in the United States (California, Florida, Colorado, Illinois, New York, Texas, North Carolina, and Washington) and Canada (British Columbia, Alberta, and Quebec).
