Zero.5 Brewing: Artisan Excellence in Monterotondo

Located in Monterotondo, on the outskirts of Rome, Zero.5 Brewing is an artisanal microbrewery founded in 2021 from the passion of three longtime friends: Matteo and Valerio Ruggeri and Andrea Mastronardi. The name and concept of the brewery are inspired by a curious theory by Norwegian psychotherapist Finn Skårderud, which suggests that a slight alcohol deficit of 0.05% can increase sociability and promote psychophysical well-being. This unique approach reflects Zero.5 Brewing’s philosophy, which aims to create high-quality beers with a focus on balance and innovation.

The production capacity is approximately 5,000 liters per month, a volume that allows for strict quality controls and constant innovation in the brewing process. Zero.5 Brewing stands out for its specialization in high-quality IPAs, made using its exclusive Zero.5 Method, which combines tradition and cutting-edge technique with carefully selected ingredients.

Zero.5 Brewing Beers: Taste and Innovation

Zero.5 Brewing’s beer range is broad and captivating, designed to satisfy the most demanding enthusiasts and new craft beer admirers. Among the most representative offerings are:

  • Helles 'House' (4.8%): beer with a delicate taste, light bitterness, and herbal notes given by noble German hops
  • Session IPA 'Guadalupe' (4.5%): fresh and thirst-quenching, ideal for any occasion
  • 'Colibrì' (6.2%): American IPA characterized by intense aromas of tropical fruit, citrus, and resin
  • 'Palapa' (5.2%): American Pale Ale with hints of biscuit, bread crust, flowers, cut grass, and spices

In addition to these, the brewery promotes experimentation with the Zero.5 Gene line, which offers innovative beers such as:

  • 'Carbonio' (4.5%): Session IPA brewed with Pils, Golden Promise, and oat malts, hopped with Galaxy and Citra
  • 'Uranio' (8.3%): New England-style Double IPA, rich in Citra, Mosaic, Galaxy, Nelson Sauvin, and Nectaron hops
  • 'Cobalto' (6.3%): New Zealand IPA with Riwaka, Superdelic, and Nectaron hops

For those wishing to immerse themselves in the world of Zero.5 Brewing, it is possible to visit the Casa Ruggeri, the official taproom located at Via della Torraccia, 10, in Monterotondo. Here the atmosphere is welcoming and authentic, perfect for tasting the beers on site and participating in special events that celebrate brewing culture.

Zero.5 Brewing thus stands out as a point of reference in the Italian microbrewery scene, with a genuine innovative spirit and a clear intent to bring high-quality craft beer to the forefront through carefully crafted productions and a deep connection with tradition and the local community.
