farina rossa
Nestled inside NE Minneapolis' Fair State Brewing Cooperative, Farina Rossa marries old-school pizza-making traditions with locally sourced ingredients. They handcraft their sourdough using seven kinds of flour (all sourced from Minnesota), resulting in a crust that’s airy, crisp, and full of character.Â
Â
Pair their pizzas with Fair State’s expertly crafted brews — we love their classic German-style pils and n/a citra hop water.
PIZZA PICK
"The OPE," with red sauce, cheese blend, sausage, pepperoni, caramelized onion, hot honey, ricotta and parm.

Â
