Pop corn per package directions and place in a large mixing bowl.
Combine the barley malt and maple syrup in a small sauce pan. Bring to a boil over a high flame. Reduce to medium-low and simmer, stirring constantly, for 5 to 7 minutes. Pour the hot syrup over the popcorn and mix thoroughly. Moisten your hands slightly with cold water. Take a handful of the mixture and form into a ball while packing firmly with your hands.
