Un Monte di Birra

Un Monte di Birra: the Montespertoli craft beer festival

Un Monte di Birra is the event that transforms Piazza del Popolo, in the historic center of Montespertoli (Metropolitan City of Florence, Tuscany), into a grand village dedicated to quality craft beer. In the heart of the Florentine Chianti hills—a region better known for its wine—the festival offers a fresh, unique perspective on local conviviality: flowing taps, selected breweries, and plenty of artisanal creations to discover in good company.

Breweries and beers

The heart of the event lies in the tasting stalls that showcase the region's brewing artistry. Featured breweries from recent editions include names like Birra Settantadue, Aries, and BirRo, offering visitors a panoramic view of the diverse interpretations of Tuscan and Romagna craftsmanship, ranging from light, easy-drinking beers to more complex and aromatic recipes.

Live music, DJ sets, and markets

Beyond the beer, Un Monte di Birra is a well-rounded town square festival. Evenings are accompanied by live music and DJ sets featuring emerging artists, keeping Montespertoli lively until late. During the day, there is a craft and vintage market, perfect for a stroll among the stalls, while street food and children's entertainment round out the offerings, making the event suitable for the whole family.

A festival born from the community

The event is organized by local businesses gathered around the natural shopping center of Montespertoli, with the patronage of the Municipality of Montespertoli and the support of the Merchants' Association, which manages the refreshment area. It is this community spirit that gives Un Monte di Birra its authentic character: an opportunity to experience the town center, support artisanal producers, and gather in the square as the warm season arrives.
