L'Ultimo Piceno Agricultural Brewery: Artisan Excellence in the Marche Region
In the heart of the gentle hills of the Marche region, in San Severino Marche, lies L'Ultimo Piceno Agricultural Brewery, a young and innovative reality founded in 2019. Founded by Simone Fattobene, this brewery represents a perfect combination of tradition, territory, and sustainability, embodying the philosophy of modern agricultural entrepreneurship applied to craft beer production.
The chosen name, L'Ultimo Piceno, pays tribute to the ancient Piceni people who inhabited these lands between the 9th and 3rd centuries BC. It is a strong reminder of the connection to local history and cultural roots, essential elements in the company’s production journey.
Zero-Kilometer Craft Beers
The distinctive value of the brewery lies in the exclusive use of zero-kilometer raw materials. The water, in fact, comes from a very nearby spring, the “Grotte de u Moro”, and the barley is grown directly on the farm following strict organic regulations. This choice allows for beers with an authentic taste representative of the Marche territory, while supporting an environmentally conscious production model.
All beers from L'Ultimo Piceno are unfiltered and unpasteurized to preserve the organoleptic qualities intact and guarantee a lively beverage rich in complex flavors. Among the most appreciated specialties are:
-
Bionda Picena: characterized by a golden yellow color with a fine and persistent foam. On the nose, it offers hints of ripe fruit, floral aromas, citrus notes, and malt. On the palate, it is intense and complex, with a balanced bitter aftertaste. Perfect to accompany first courses, pizza, street food, and light snacks.
-
Hostiliana: an American Pale Ale with an intense amber color and ivory foam. Thanks to the high hopping level, it offers fresh aromas of tropical fruit, citrus, with resinous, herbal, and caramelized nuances. On the palate, pronounced notes of malt and caramel are perceived, with a pleasantly bitter finish, ideal to pair with roasts, hamburgers, fried foods, and rich sauces.
Within the brewery, it is possible to experience a complete journey thanks to guided tastings of the various beers, accompanied by typical local products such as cured meats and cheeses. The knowledgeable and passionate staff guides visitors through the discovery of the labels and suggests gastronomic pairings best suited to enhance each individual beer.
L'Ultimo Piceno stands out for its ability to combine artisanal care with a deep respect for the territory, transforming every bottle into a story to tell, made of tradition, nature, and authentic flavors of the Marche region.
