Curiosities about WAR beers you absolutely need to know
Are you a beer enthusiast and want to learn what makes WAR beers so special? In this article, you will discover five key features of Birrificio WAR — and at the end, you’ll also find where to buy them online, with shipping throughout Italy.
1. Agricultural origin: home-grown barley
WAR is not just a brewery: it is an agricultural brewery. It grows more than 80% of the barley that is then malted for its own beers. This direct connection to the land results in superior raw materials and an authentic aromatic profile rarely found elsewhere.
2. Iconic design: cans recognizable at a glance
WAR cans, with illustrations by Elisa Previtali (Mindwarp Design), are among the most recognizable in the Italian craft scene. Each label tells a visual story consistent with the character of the beer — and this has greatly contributed to the brewery’s popularity.
3. Variety of styles: there’s a WAR for every palate
From the hoppy side (IPA, NEIPA, Double IPA) to the more delicate (Blanche, Bitter, Porter), WAR covers a wide and well-executed range of styles. Here are the main ones:
- IPA and NEIPA — Amen, Rage, Mezzo Fatto, Tutto Fatto
- Lager — Keller Pils Franco, Acqua Amara
- Special beers — Gioia (Blanche with Passion Fruit), Cookies (Bitter), Portobello (Porter)
- One Shot — experimental limited editions, availability varies

4. Innovative fermentation techniques
WAR constantly experiments: cold dry-hopping to enhance aromas without increasing bitterness, low-temperature fermentations for lagers, and collaborations with other breweries to explore new styles. The result is beers with complex and always recognizable profiles.
5. Engaging sensory experience
From persistent foam to spicy notes, WAR beers offer a multisensory experience. Every sip is designed to encourage conviviality and the discovery of new food pairings — from IPAs with aged cheeses to Porter with chocolate desserts.
