Birrificio del Gomito: Artisan Excellence in the Marche Region
Birrificio del Gomito is a hidden gem nestled among the hills of Agugliano, in the province of Ancona. Founded in 2010 from the passion of Paolo Ragni, a homebrewer with years of experience, this artisanal brewery quickly established itself as one of the pioneers of the brewing scene in Marche. Its story is closely tied to the territory, reflecting in every beer the attention to quality and traditional production.
The name, original and distinctive, is a tribute to the city of Ancona, whose very name derives from the Greek 'ankôn,' meaning 'elbow.' This term describes the unique promontory shape that characterizes the Marche’s capital and also symbolizes the strategic location of the brewery, situated at Via Gavone 47/A, just a few kilometers from the sea and the most renowned areas of Monte Conero. This geographical setting enriches the tasting experience, blending brewing artistry with genuine territory.
