La Foresta Brewery: Craft Excellence in the Heart of Prato
Located in Prato, at Via Don Giovanni Minzoni 24, La Foresta Brewery is a craft microbrewery established in 2017 thanks to the passion and experience of Giulio Santanni, a former homebrewer with over five years of practice in the world of homemade beer. Here, production stands out for the exclusive use of natural raw materials and a strong commitment to environmental respect, resulting in a superior and authentic quality beer.
The brewery welcomes visitors in a warm and cozy environment, where it is possible to admire the entire production process and relax in the tasting area, entirely handmade with pallet sofas, stools, and rustic benches. This space, perfect for socializing, is enriched with board games and a foosball table, ideal for shared moments of leisure during events or simply for a pleasant break among craft beers.
Production and Beers of La Foresta
The variety of beers produced here is wide and designed to satisfy the most demanding palates. Among the available types are:
- Blonde Ale “EverGreen”
- American Amber Ale “Tortuga”
- Oatmeal Stout “Nemus”
- Saison “Zefir”
- Doppelbock “Rudolph”
- Honey Ale “Bee Sting”
Each beer is strictly unpasteurized and unfiltered, to preserve natural properties intact and guarantee a “living” product, rich in flavor and character thanks to the yeast still present. This processing method gives the beers an authentic taste and a full body, appreciated by both experts and newcomers to the beer world.
Since 2022, La Foresta Brewery has also launched a YouTube channel, becoming a point of reference for Italian homebrewers and all enthusiasts who want to discover the secrets of the master brewer’s craft and deepen their knowledge of artisanal production techniques.
Visitors can purchase beers directly at the brewery, with the option to request home delivery. For those who want to fully immerse themselves in the experience, guided tours are available which explain step by step every phase of brewing, accompanied by tastings of the different beers produced, offering a unique opportunity to appreciate beer in its most authentic form.
The passion and professionalism that animate La Foresta Brewery make it a must-visit for anyone wishing to discover the true heart of Italian craft beer, in a setting that combines tradition, innovation, and respect for nature.
