Food & Drink

Italy has long been associated with wine, but craft brewers have begun making quite a name for themselves in recent years. On your next trip to Italy consider taking a tour of some of the best craft breweries in the country.

 

Almond ’22

Almond ’22 is a force to be reckoned with throughout the country. Located in Spoltore, the brewery is pumping out pale ale with shades of fresh salads and rose that Italians can’t get enough of.

 

Birrificio del Ducato

If sour beer is more to your taste, try Birrificio del Ducato in Parma. Recent reviews indicate this microbrewery could be giving big-name Belgium brands a run for their money. The flavors here are particularly popular among American travelers.

 

LoverBeer

LoverBeer is the brewery for those who enjoy their beer a little sweet and a little sour. The BeerBrugna, in particular, is brewed alongside Italian plums and has the fresh aroma of peach to top it off.

 

Birra del Borgo

If you find yourself in Rome during Christmastime you have to stop by Birra del Borgo. Established in 1999, they’ve spent almost two decades perfecting seasonal beers and their Christmas offerings have just the right tinge of spice to set them above the rest.

 

Birrifico Toccalmatto

A truly great IPA is difficult to find in Italy, but the folks at Birrifico Toccalmatto have managed to create something special in their B Space Invader Black. The smooth sweetness of tropical fruits blends nicely with dark malt reminiscent of coffee.
