Beer Alternatives
hopIQ found 10 beers with the same citrusy and malty character as Calabrifornia. A California Common brewed with a Bolognese twist — Birra Bellazzi's most inventive flagship fuses the American steam beer tradition with Calabrian bergamot, the aromatic citrus fruit that defines the southernmost tip of Italy. Amber-golden with a firm malt backbone, clean fermentation character and an unexpected bergamot citrus lift that makes this beer uniquely Italian. A cult favourite on the Bologna craft scene. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
