Mighty Bread's first beer, Amici del Pane, is made with the same durum wheat used in its popular semolina loaf.In addition to the toasts, salads, sandwiches, and snacks on the cafe menu at Mighty Bread Co. in South Philadelphia, customers can now get a beer.Awhile back, owner Chris DiPiazza was ruminating about the similarities between bread and beer. “Fermentation is something that we know a lot about,” he said. “We wanted to see what those kinds of inspired-type beers could be.
Amici del Pane , the first under Mighty Bread Beer Co.’s new brand, was rolled out last week. DiPiazza describes it as a semolina Italian pilsner, made with the same durum wheat used in Mighty’s popular semolina loaf. Mighty is offering it on tap, and in four-packs of cans to go. Staff pours the beer, as well as three wines from Mural City Cellars, from a station on the side; there is no bar. At brunch daily, Mighty offers Bloody Marys and mimosas.
The next step, starting Sept. 12, will be aperitivo from 4 to 6 p.m. weekdays. Besides the breads and pastries, that menu will be made up of small plates such as olives with bay leaf and orange; marinated mussels with salsa verde and a baguette; a charcuterie plate; scallop toast with fermented aji chili butter; and peppers and anchovies .DiPiazza, who previously owned an IT company, dabbled in bread-baking before he took courses to improve his game.
