    What label do we give those beer drinkers who prefer a malt-forward brew?

    Two suggestions:

    1.) Malt Ball
    2.) Maltine Cracker (which can also be used as a slur from a Hop Head to a caucasian Malt Ball...as in, "C'mon, Tom, quit being such a Maltine Cracker and order an IPA for once!")


    Further suggestions???

    I've always just stuck with the "-head" label, maybe "-fiend". I call myself a maltheaded esterfiend.

    It would be a shame if there were a group of people that we couldn't label.

    Fear not. Never happen. Humans can always label/call names. :slight_smile:

    If I must be labeled, I guess this will do.
