Montecassino Brewery: Tradition and Innovation in the Heart of Cassino
In the evocative setting of Cassino, more precisely on Via Santa Maria dell'Albaneta, Montecassino Brewery represents an authentic return to the brewing roots linked to the historic Abbey of Montecassino. Founded in 2020, this microbrewery stands as the guardian of a millenary tradition: the production of craft beer in an area that boasts a history of barley cultivation and brewing dating back to as early as the 5th century.
The Craft Beers of Montecassino Brewery
The flagship of the production is certainly the Montecassino Beer, a Belgian Specialty Ale distinguished by its dark amber color and a well-balanced alcohol content of 6.5%. Its recipe, the result of a careful selection of various special malts, offers an intense and enveloping aroma where caramel and spicy notes emerge. On the palate, a slight bitter note can be perceived that perfectly balances the medium-full body of the beer, making it suitable for those seeking a rich and complex taste experience.
Alongside this offering, the brewery also produces Alba, a Blond Ale with a characteristic intense golden color and persistent white foam. With an alcohol content of 5%, Alba stands out for a slightly spicy and floral aromatic bouquet, accompanied by a delicate bitterness that harmonizes with the malted sweetness. This beer is ideal for those who prefer fresher and lighter flavors without giving up complexity and character.
A Place of Culture and Tasting
In addition to production, Montecassino Brewery is a point of reference for craft beer lovers and for those wishing to immerse themselves in an authentic and welcoming atmosphere. The venue is designed as a space where history, tradition, and conviviality meet, offering a unique experience in the heart of Lazio. With a suggestive panoramic view, it is the perfect place to taste the beers accompanied by typical local cuisine dishes, thus enhancing the connection between beer and territory.
The brewery positions itself as a true cultural and gastronomic crossroads, able to combine the passion for good beer with the rediscovery of the historical roots of this land. A must-visit stop for anyone wishing to discover the excellence of Italian beer craftsmanship, in a setting that speaks of tradition, quality, and innovation.
