Nerobrigante Craft Brewery: Heart of Tradition and Flavor in Trento

Nerobrigante is a craft brewery founded in Masi di Sorni, in the municipality of Lavis, in the picturesque province of Trento. Established in 2016, it is located in an area rich in agricultural and winemaking history, on the western slopes of Monte Corona at 287 meters above sea level, a territory renowned for the cultivation of fine grapes, including the famous Sorni Bianco and Sorni Rosso, wines of great reputation recognized as Trentino DOC.

The brewery’s very name evokes the strong and independent character of the legendary Trentino brigand, a symbolic figure reflected in the soul of every beer produced. Nerobrigante’s beers are characterized by careful and traditional craftsmanship: all are unfiltered, the result of a top-fermentation process and bottle refermentation, to ensure authentic and complex flavors.

Nerobrigante’s Beers: Between Legend and Territory

Nerobrigante offers a selection of unique craft beers, each with a well-defined story and character, telling the legends and culture of the Val di Sorni. Among the most appreciated:

Zio Urlich: a Weizen with an intense golden yellow color, featuring fruity aromas and delicate yeast notes. The body is balanced and smooth, with a rounded and creamy flavor that wins over the palate.
La 18: a Golden Ale with an evocative name, inspired by the legend of a young man who got lost in the woods and found refuge at the Nerobrigante farmhouse. The nose perceives floral and vanilla scents, while the taste is firm and dry.
