Anbra - The Excellence of the L’Aquila Microbrewery
Anbra, acronym for Anonima Brasseria Aquilana, represents a true milestone in the Italian craft beer scene. Founded in 2011 as the first microbrewery in the L’Aquila area, this project is the result of the passion of brewmaster Luca Marcotullio, who managed to transform an old carpentry workshop in the heart of Fossa — province of L’Aquila — into a modern brewing facility.
Anbra’s philosophy is based on absolute attention to quality and genuineness of the product. The beers are produced without pasteurization or microfiltration, thus preserving the original aromas and flavors intact. This choice allows for an authentic and characterful tasting experience, appreciated by connoisseurs and craft beer enthusiasts alike.
