Italian dark beer
Many types on the market of Italian dark beer. “Dark beer” is a very broad definition which, while taking into account the appearance, does not specifically define the products. Some Italian beer brands define with “dark” all those types of beer graded in color from amber to the darkest black typical of Irish origin stouts.
In reality, the world of Italian dark beer and international beer hides an extreme variety of recipes and flavors, from Dunkel weiss to Porter, reaching triple malt and concluding with Barley wine. They are generally less thirst-quenching compared to low fermentation lagers and for this reason considered beers “for meditation“, particularly suitable for tastings and gatherings among friends.
Some go perfectly with pizza, others, like schwarz bier, are impeccable queens of platters of cold cuts or cheeses.
Excellent are the results that Italian craft production has managed to achieve in this field as well, just think of the varied bouquet of Spuma Nera from Baladin brewery, capable of carrying notes of chinotto and rhubarb, the dark double malt of Mastri Birrai Umbri or that of l’Olmaia. Enjoy excellent brands and productions, even gluten-free, for the finest palates.
