Birrificio Sant'Andrea: Craft Excellence in the Heart of Vercelli
Birrificio Sant'Andrea was founded in 2010 in Vercelli, at Via Cima Dodici 22, by a group of friends united by two great passions: craft beer and rock music. This microbrewery stands out for its ability to blend tradition and innovation, offering high-quality beers that tell a story deeply connected to the territory and local culture.
The name itself, chosen in homage to the famous Basilica of Sant'Andrea, a historic symbol of Vercelli, emphasizes the strong bond with the city. A distinctive element is the use of water from the Fonte del Lucca, a precious natural resource that helps give a unique character to the beers produced.
Quality Production and a Unique Experience for Enthusiasts
Every beer signed Sant'Andrea is the result of meticulous ingredient selection and environmentally attentive production processes. The range offered goes from the most classic creations to the boldest proposals, characteristics that have helped make Birrificio Sant'Andrea a benchmark for craft beer lovers.
Among the most renowned products are:
- La Bionda del Leone: a Pilsner with a dry and clean taste, dedicated to the historic football team Pro Vercelli and inspired by its symbol, the lion.
- La Rossa del Gallo: an English Strong Bitter recalling the weather vane on the Cathedral of Sant'Andrea, with a strong and persistent character.
- Hell Rice: a Barley Wine with an intense color and rich flavor, featuring sweet notes of candied fruit and a warm, enveloping aftertaste.
But Birrificio Sant'Andrea is not just beer: inside is the BSA Beer Club, a lively space with 14 taps, including 2 hand pumps, where craft beer meets live music. Tribute band concerts, DJ sets, and other cultural events create a dynamic and engaging atmosphere, ideal for those seeking not only a good drink but also an unforgettable experience.
Another distinctive aspect of the brewery is its social commitment. Through initiatives such as the production of the beer 'Hey Ho! To-Go,' dedicated to supporting the construction of a water well in Togo, BSA brings solidarity and responsibility into play, showing that beer can also be a tool for positive change.
Birrificio Sant'Andrea thus represents much more than a simple beer producer: it is a place where passion, territory, culture, and social commitment meet, offering visitors a journey into taste and Italian craft tradition they will not easily forget.
