Birrificio della Granda: Artisan Excellence in the Heart of Piedmont

Birrificio della Granda was founded in Lagnasco, in the province of Cuneo, in 2011, thanks to the vision of Ivano Astesana, a former biologist and IT specialist, who transformed his passion for beer into a successful project able to stand out at an international level. This brewery quickly established itself as a point of reference in the world of Italian craft beer, winning numerous awards thanks to the exceptional quality and originality of its products.

Two Souls to Satisfy Every Palate

The production philosophy of Birrificio della Granda is based on a solid artisan spirit, aiming to make quality beer accessible to a wide audience, without ever giving up the authenticity that distinguishes small independent realities, far from industrial production. To achieve this balance, the brewery has created two clearly distinct lines:

The Girls: designed for those approaching the world of craft beer for the first time, this range offers light, straightforward, and easily appreciated beers, ideal for those seeking simple yet well-defined flavors.
Hop 4 The Geeks (H4TG): dedicated to the most experienced and curious enthusiasts, this line features refined beers with innovative recipes focused on experimentation, able to stimulate the senses and surprise with every sip.

Among the most famous products stand out the Black Hop Sun, a Black IPA that won the title of World Best Black IPA at the prestigious World Beer Awards, and the Missis IPA, an intensely hopped amber beer that earned the gold medal as the best Italian IPA. These recognitions demonstrate Birrificio della Granda’s ability to combine technique, creativity, and attention to raw materials.

An Agricultural Brewery Committed to Sustainability

Birrificio della Granda is not only a craft beer producer but also an agricultural brewery that cultivates nearly all the barley used for its beers directly on its farm. This approach ensures complete control over the quality of raw materials and reduces environmental impact, while enhancing the Piedmontese territory.

Located at Via Manta 15 in Lagnasco, the brewery is the heart of a passionate team that works with dedication to carry forward an authentic project where tradition and innovation intertwine to celebrate the best of Italian craft beer culture. Every bottle is the result of a carefully detailed process, capable of telling a story of territory, passion, and uncompromising quality.
