From Anton Paar

Beer is an extraction of malted barley ("malt") in water, flavoured with hops and fermented with yeast. Malt is produced from barley in the so-called "malthouse" or "malting", which may be a part of a brewery or a separate plant. There the conversion of barley into malt is brought about by first soaking the barley in water to make it grow ("steeping").
