MaltoPiu: the craft beer that tells the story of Cilento
Located in the heart of Campagna, a picturesque town in the province of Salerno, MaltoPiu is a microbrewery founded in 2019 from the passion of Alberto Trotta, a homebrewer who decided to turn his love for craft beer into a concrete project. Framed by the lush nature of the Cilento National Park and the Monti Picentini, MaltoPiu stands out for a production method that places the territory and its precious raw materials at the center.
The brewery authentically enhances local resources, choosing ingredients from local producers and cultivated directly by Alberto himself. Among these, chamomile and chestnut honey stand out, fundamental elements for some beers in the line, while other components, such as the characteristic Ianculidda wheat and the white fig of Cilento, come from cooperatives and farmers in the area. This synergy with the territory gives each beer an identity strongly linked to agricultural tradition and local biodiversity.
MaltoPiu’s beers: a journey through unique and authentic flavors
MaltoPiu’s production focuses on five top-fermented beers, each with a distinct style and character. Here are some examples that show the care and originality behind every bottle:
- Ianculidda: a spicy and fresh Blanche, enriched with lemon zest and the delicacy of chamomile, perfect for those seeking a balance between freshness and complex aromas.
- Far Way: an elegant and floral Golden Ale, with light notes that make it an easy-to-drink beer.
- Carosella: a White IPA that combines Carosella wheat with citrus and tropical hints, ideal for those who love to explore innovative yet well-balanced tastes.
- Sanacore: a Honey Strong Ale with an amber color, enriched with chestnut honey that adds body and natural sweetness to the product.
- Ficus: a Belgian Dark Strong Ale with Cilento white fig, characterized by a perfect balance between malt roastiness and fruity sweetness.
These beers are not just beverages, but true stories of a territory rich in history, flavors, and traditions. Thanks to MaltoPiu, every sip becomes an experience that leads to the discovery of Cilento and its authentic essence.
The microbrewery demonstrates how artisan passion can blend with a deep respect for nature and the local context, giving life to craft products that speak of quality, sustainability, and territorial identity. MaltoPiu is not just beer: it is a way of living a millennia-old culture reinterpreted in a modern and genuine key.
