First question – who’s Paul? He’s not a person. We’re a family, the Pauls family. One of the oldest malting family businesses in the UK.

An old dog can’t learn new tricks? Wrong. Pauls Malt. That’s what. Yes we’re old. Yes we’ve been around since the 19th century. So what? Doesn’t mean we can’t have a kickass look and produce some of the best malted barley on the planet.
Stuffy and boring? We’re far from it.

We take inspiration from our maritime past and have used it to make your malted barley look as good as it can get. Who knew Maris Otter could look this fly…

Our aim is to be the go-to supplier of malted barley for craft brewers. Whatever it takes. That’s what we’ll strive to do. Fact.

We’re proud of our past and excited for the future. With a team passionate about barley, beer and whiskey, we want to help brewers craft delicious new tipples for everyone to enjoy.

Pauls Malt. Not a person. We’re a family.

Founded in 1862, Simpsons Malt is an independent, fifth-generation family-owned business and Certified B Corporation. The company’s passion is a focus on making malts with taste, flavour and consistent high quality with the world’s best brewers and distillers in mind, helping them to craft the finest beers and whiskies.

From our beginnings as a family business who were committed to bringing quality malt to Glasgow’s brewers, we’ve grown and developed into a trusted partner to many of the world’s leading brewers and distillers. 2023 marked 200 years of malting heritage for Bairds and the next exciting chapter of our malting story was the merger with Soufflet Malt in November 2023 to create Soufflet Bairds Malt Ltd. Across our 5 sites in the UK, we have recently completed three expansions and have in 2024 commenced a fourth expansion which make us the largest UK maltster in the UK.

Soufflet Malt UK is a manufacturer of malted barley and supply the brewing, food and distilling industry in the UK.

Traditional floor maltings dating from 1855, producing hand crafted malt for the brewing and distilling sectors. The complex of four Grade II listed malthouses are designed to enhance the slower, gentle process of modifying barley into malt – an original process which produces a very special quality and flavour.
