Hammer: the excellence of craft beer in Villa d’Adda
In the heart of Villa d’Adda, in the province of Bergamo, lies Hammer, a brewery that has become a point of reference in the landscape of Italian craft beer. Founded in 2015 by the brothers Fausto, Roberto, and Angelo Brigati, Hammer was born from a deep family passion for the brewing art, combining tradition and innovation to create beers with a unique character and high quality.
Hammer’s production facility is a true technological excellence: it covers 1,300 square meters and features a 20-hectoliter brewhouse, five 25-hectoliter fermenters, and one 50-hectoliter fermenter, in addition to a modern isobaric bottling line. This cutting-edge structure allows meticulous control of every phase of the production process, ensuring consistency and quality of the final product—indispensable elements to satisfy the most demanding palates.
