Quality and Tradition: A Mark of Excellence
Since 2013, Gilac has been part of the prestigious network of the Maestri del Gusto di Torino e Provincia, a recognition that attests to the superior quality and authenticity of its beers. Production follows rigorous artisanal methods: no filtration or pasteurization, to preserve the aromas and vitality of the beers intact. This approach allows for an authentic product, classified as a 'living' beer, which maintains the full organoleptic richness and complexity of flavor.
The commitment to independent production is certified by Unionbirrai, which accredits Gilac as a pure and original craft producer, an added value that highlights the companyâs philosophy.

The location at Via Genova 61/a in Rivoli is much more than a production site: it is a crossroads where innovation and passion meet, giving life to beers that tell a story of dedication, territory, and artisanal mastery.
