Poggio Rosso Farm Brewery: Craft Beer in the Heart of the Tuscan Hills
The Poggio Rosso Farm Brewery, located in Peccioli amid the picturesque Tuscan hills, is an extraordinary example of how agricultural tradition can meet a passion for craft beer. Founded in 2022 by Fernando Campana and Katia di Nardo, this brewery stands out for its completely sustainable and authentic approach, thanks to the direct cultivation of the organic cereals used in its productions. A true short supply chain project that guarantees high quality and respect for the environment.
Poggio Rosso’s production philosophy is based on self-sufficiency: the production plant uses steam powered by biomass derived from the farm itself, particularly the hazelnut shell, while solar panels support fermentation and cold chain management. This innovative model reduces environmental impact, highlighting the brewery’s commitment to responsible and sustainable production, perfectly integrated into the surrounding landscape.
