We’re far enough south in Italy right now that we’ve spotted the water buffalo responsible for Buffalo Mozarrella. I’ve learned that Italy grows 300 different kinds of chestnuts and that Italian brewers make at least 40 different chestnut beers.
More later, but if you need to read more about Italian beer now, check out Evan Rail’s New York Times story Savoring Italy, One Beer at a Time.
Makes me want to swing back north and visit the spots we missed.
Come back to the north! There’s lot of things to see and taste!
