Root Shoot Malting
Farm Maltster
Root Shoot Malting is a 5th generation family farm and craft malthouse that supplies the Rocky Mountain region with craft malt and grains. 

Founded by the Olander family in 2016, Root Shoot harvests barley, wheat, rye and corn to give craft brewers and distillers high-quality taste in every glass. 

Located on the Olander Farms’ 112-acre regenerative farm in Loveland, Colorado, and approximately 1500 leased acres, Root Shoot is working to ensure that farmland remains available to grow grains for the beers and spirits of tomorrow.
Products & Services
Root Shoot offers a selection of craft base and specialty malt, includng raw barley, wheat, rye, oats, and corn. Our focus is on consistency and quality and every bag is hand-packaged and self-distributed from our craft malthouse in 50# bags or 2000# super sacks. 

We currently grow, malt and distribute all of our grain on our farms in Northern Colorado. We grow Spring Genie barley, Huffman soft white winter wheat, monida oats, non-GMO corn, and Guardian Rye. Additionally we are experimenting with heritage grains including Abenaki corn, Olandsvete wheat, and Thunder and Lightning winter barley.
