Birrificio Fiorentino IPA

Tap to rate

The hop-forward expression from Florence's newest craft brewery — unfiltered and unpasteurised with an assertive American hop character. Pale gold with a white head; the nose is citrusy and tropical with a resinous pine edge. The palate delivers a clean, firm bitterness over a lean malt base with a dry, satisfying finish at 50 IBUs. 'P.IPA, no complaints' — the bold counterpart to the approachable Birrificio Fiorentino Pale Ale.

◐ Taste

Entry is clean and crisp, with the hop bitterness arriving early and building through the mid-palate. A lean malt base provides minimal sweetness, allowing the assertive 60 IBU bitterness to dominate without astringency. The finish is bone-dry with a peppery resinous fade.

Tulip glass

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.
