Maiot Farm Brewery: The Excellence of Abruzzo in Craft Beer
In the heart of Abruzzo, in Casoli, stands the Maiot Farm Brewery, a venture founded in 2017 that fully embodies the philosophy of artisanal and sustainable production. This brewery is distinguished by the exclusive use of raw materials grown directly on its own land, adhering to strict standards of organic farming. The quality of Maiot beers arises from meticulous attention at every stage, starting from the soil itself and culminating in the finished product.
The water, a fundamental element in beer production, comes from the pure aquifers of the Majella, imparting each beer with a unique, fresh, and authentic character. Maiot’s production cycle is in fact a fully artisanal process: from barley, wheat, and other cereals cultivated locally, to their transformation into malt at specialized facilities selected by the company itself. This direct control over raw materials ensures beers with a defined taste and strong identity, in which the passion and pursuit of quality by its producers can be clearly perceived.
Maiot Brewery Beers: Tradition and Innovation
The selection of Maiot beers is diverse and thoughtfully crafted to satisfy different tastes, each time enhancing the unique qualities of the Abruzzo territory and artisanal mastery. Among the most representative offerings stand out:
-
Wale: a clear wheat beer, unfiltered and unpasteurized, with an opalescent yellow color and velvety foam. Characterized by intense and enveloping aromas, with fruity notes and a slight final acidity, it pairs perfectly with focaccia, cured meats, pickled vegetables, and fried foods.
-
Rale: an amber beer with ruby reflections, characterized by aromas recalling citrus and cinnamon. Full-bodied and enveloping on the palate, it offers sensations of caramel and candied fruit, ideal to accompany aged cheeses, dry pastries, and dark chocolate.
-
Bale: a light blonde beer, with a compact and clear foam, balanced between the herbaceous notes of hops and the biscuity tones of malts. Dry and refreshing, it finishes with a rich bitter aftertaste, perfect with bruschetta, vegetable pâté, white meats, and fried dishes.
-
Atena: inspired by cream ales, this beer presents a delicate light amber yellow color, with compact foam. Light, smooth, and thirst-quenching, it surprises with its herbaceous bitterness and floral notes of sweet lupin honey.
-
Aglea: the result of a valuable collaboration with Cantina Colle Moro, this Italian Grape Ale combines light malts and wheat with the intensity of native white Moscato grapes from Frisa. With a straw yellow color and light foam, it releases aromatic scents of yellow-fleshed fruit and orange blossoms, with a lively and balanced taste, sweet but balanced by acidity.
Maiot Farm Brewery is not only a place of production but also a meeting point for enthusiasts. The welcoming tasting room allows visitors to discover firsthand the richness and variety of beer flavors, immersed in a familiar and relaxing atmosphere. Here agricultural history, artisanal quality, and local culture merge to offer an authentic and engaging experience for those who love beer made with heart and respect for nature.
