Did you get them from Roynik? Visited there last year. Styrian wolf was really good. Comparable to west coast hops IMO

i use exclusively viking malt since i live here in finland. i think the malts are good and with base malt i dont think you cant go wrong. some of the microbrewers out here have taste preferences to weyermann for specialy malts and the local homebrew shop guy said that there tend to be a bit more...
