Piccolo Birrificio Agricolo Sangermano18: Tradition and Passion in the Heart of the Marche
In the picturesque setting of Camerano, a small village nestled among the gentle hills of the Ancona province, the Piccolo Birrificio Agricolo Sangermano18 was born, a sanctuary for lovers of quality craft beer. Founded in 2013 by Corrado Pirani, a former metalworker who managed to transform his passion for beer into an outstanding artisanal creation, this brewery represents a perfect blend of agricultural tradition and brewing innovation.
The choice to settle in Camerano is no coincidence: a territory rich in unspoiled nature, in the heart of the Conero Park and Riviera, offering an ideal environment to directly cultivate raw materials. Here, the brewery produces barley, spelt, and wheat, which ensures complete control over the quality and freshness of everything that goes into each bottle. The 3-hectolitre brewhouse and the 20-hectolitre cellar allow a limited annual production carefully attended to in every detail, crafting about 150 hectolitres of craft beer per year.

The range of beers produced by Sangermano18 stands out for variety and personality, inspired by various international brewing traditions while maintaining a deep connection to the Marche territory. Among the most appreciated productions are:
