Montegioco Brewery: Craft Excellence in the Heart of Piedmont

The Montegioco Brewery is a craft microbrewery located in the picturesque hamlet of Fabbrica di Montegioco, in the province of Alessandria. Founded in 2005 and operational since 2006, it has established itself as a reference point among Italian microbreweries thanks to its deep connection with the territory and the quality of its productions. The name recalls the town of Montegioco, nestled in the Val Grue, a strategic position linking Piedmont, Liguria, Lombardy, and Emilia Romagna, four regions famous for their rich food and wine traditions.

Behind this venture is Riccardo Franzosi, a passionate homebrewer who transformed his passion into a profession, carrying forward a project that combines creativity, territory, and meticulous attention to ingredients. The brewery stands out for its use of local raw materials and seasonal ingredients, making each beer an authentic tribute to the land.

The Brewery’s Philosophy and Its Distinctive Production

Montegioco’s production is characterized by the use of indigenous ingredients and interaction with local artisanal realities, creating unique products with a strong territorial character. For example:

  • The peaches from Volpedo are the highlight of the beer 'Quarta Runa,' an explosion of freshness and color.
  • The 'Bella di Garbagna' cherries enrich the 'Garbagnina,' which stands out for its fruity and delicate tones.

This synergy goes beyond beer: Montegioco Brewery collaborates with producers of cured meats and cheeses, using its beers not only as beverages but also as ingredients for affinities and refining processes, a method that further enriches and enhances the territory’s products.

The range of beers offered is broad and very varied, able to satisfy different tastes:

  • Runa: a very drinkable Belgian Blond Ale, light but complex.
  • Rurale: an amber ale inspired by Anglo-Saxon malts and hops, with an intense and balanced character.
  • Rat Weizen: a German-style beer that highlights the aromas of wheat and spices.
  • Open Mind: an experimental Italian Grape Ale, made with Barbera and Croatina grapes that provide refined aromas and a pleasant acidity.

This variety demonstrates the brewery’s ability to continually renew itself, maintaining a high quality level and stylistic consistency.

Riccardo Franzosi has earned the merit of carrying forward a vision that unites tradition and innovation, to the point of winning in 2012 the prestigious title of Brewer of the Year, an award that celebrates technical excellence and a production philosophy dedicated to quality.

Montegioco Brewery thus represents a true treasure trove of flavors, where artisanal passion tells the story of a territory rich in history, culture, and taste, inviting you to discover beers that steam with tradition yet surprise with new sensory experiences.

Jione Montegioco, kifaa cha kupendeza kilichoko Italia kinachotoa mandhari za kuvutia, utamaduni wa kipekee na utulivu wa asili kwa wageni wote.
