Pineapple Pizza

Pineapple Pizza — New England IPA with Pineapple — Birrificio WAR x Salama Brewing

Pineapple Pizza is a juicy one shot from Birrificio WAR in Cassina de' Pecchi (Milan, Lombardy), this time in collaboration with the Finnish producer Salama Brewing. A very modern New England IPA: tropical and lightly bitter, almost like fruit juice. The pineapple was added at the start of fermentation to make the most of all the simple sugars the fruit could provide, and the hop mix is nothing short of explosive.

Sensory profile

The nose is a tropical explosion: pineapple dominates with its juicy sweetness, amplified by the explosive hop mix that adds mango, passion fruit, and citrus. On the palate, it’s almost like fruit juice — very tropical, lightly bitter, with a soft body and lively carbonation. The finish is fresh, fruity, and refreshing. A NEIPA that doesn’t take itself too seriously and is pure pleasure to drink.
