Abbà Brewery: Craft Passion in the Heart of the Grangia Vercellese
In the heart of the Grangia Vercellese, in Livorno Ferraris, lies Abbà Brewery, a Piedmontese excellence in the Italian craft beer scene. Founded in 2005 by Vittorio Celidonio, an industrial chemist and passionate homebrewer, the brewery was born from the transformation of an ancient farmhouse, preserving its rustic charm and enhancing it with a touch of modernity. Production takes place on the first floor, once a hayloft, while the old stable has been converted into a charming taproom, creating a warm and welcoming environment, perfect for tasting the beers.
High-Quality Craft Beers
Abbà Brewery stands out for its production of top-fermented beers, unfiltered and unpasteurized, which undergo a natural refermentation in the bottle or keg. This artisanal method allows the beers to evolve slowly, enriching with new nuances and aromas over time, offering a consistently stimulating and unique drinking experience.
The range of beers is varied and refined, including:
- Bionda Leggera (Kölsch): fresh, dry, and light, ideal for refreshing
- Nigra (Stout): dry and aromatic, with intense notes of roasted malts, licorice, and bitter cocoa
- Palea (Weizen): soft with fruity notes and a slightly tart finish
- East India (English IPA): amber and characterized by herbal aromas and a pronounced bitterness
- Ambra (Belgian Ale): with a smooth character, hints of caramel, dried fruit, and toasted malts
- D’Oro (Belgian Strong Ale): strong and golden with sweet notes of baked apples, raisins, and toasted hazelnuts
In addition to these classic beers, Abbà also offers special brews such as the Long Summer Ale, fresh and citrusy thanks to the addition of rice during brewing, and the Cedrosale, a pleasant gose with a perfectly balanced flavor. For true enthusiasts, the The French Bulldog Bourbon stands out, an imperial stout aged for six months in former Bourbon barrels, giving it a unique, full-bodied, and enveloping character.
