San Pietro Craft Brewery: Brewing Excellence in the Heart of Irpinia
In the picturesque territory of Irpinia, in Chianche, in the hamlet of San Pietro Irpino, stands the San Pietro Craft Brewery, a reality that combines passion, tradition, and innovation in the world of craft beer. Founded in 2016 by Giuseppe Ferrara, an agronomist, and Angelo Valentino, an oenologist, the brewery was born as a natural continuation of the experience gained by Cantina Macchialupa in the wine sector, transferring all expertise and attention to detail into beer production.
Production takes place in a 15-hectoliter brewhouse located next to the cellar, where brewmaster Vincenzo Cillo applies his mastery to create beers with great personality and quality. Today, the brewery represents a benchmark for promoting craft beer culture in Campania, establishing itself with a strong focus on raw materials and the production process.
