Le Springo: the craft microbrewery of Quartu Sant'Elena

Le Springo is a craft microbrewery founded in 2016 in Quartu Sant'Elena, in the province of Cagliari, thanks to the ingenuity and passion of Gabriele Springo, a mechanical engineer who decided to turn his passion for beer into reality. The brewery's name is an original play on words that recalls the founder’s surname, emphasizing a personal connection and an innovative approach to beer production.

Located at Via Zandonai, 21, Le Springo relies on a production system with a capacity of 5 hectoliters per batch. The facility allows an annual production of about 500 hectoliters, with a 5-hectoliter brewhouse and a cellar where up to 40 hectoliters of beer can be stored. This limited size enables the brewery to maintain strict quality control, while also allowing continuous experimentation with recipes.

Quality, innovation, and territory: the heart of Le Springo beers

Le Springo stands out for its care in selecting ingredients and for the constant pursuit of new collaborations between tradition and innovation. The range of beers produced is extremely varied and spans classic styles as well as bold experiments:

Hoppy Pale Ales, with intense and well-balanced aromas.
Stouts, with a full body and roasted notes.
Sour Beers, with balanced acidity and surprising freshness.

Among the most representative beers is the Sparello, a reinterpretation of the American IPA enriched with Pompia, a lemon exclusive to Sardinia. This ingredient gives it a unique aromatic profile, characterized by a very distinctive bitter and citrus note, able to bring the local identity to the national stage.

In addition to traditional production, Le Springo has brought its beers directly to the people thanks to the 'Beer Bike,' an original cargo bike with a two-way tap system launched in 2018. This innovative initiative has allowed the creation of a traveling tasting experience, bringing craft beer closer to enthusiasts in the streets of Cagliari and making every sip a moment of conviviality and discovery.

Le Springo represents one of the flagship names in the Sardinian microbrewery scene, with an approach focused on quality and the enhancement of local raw materials, able to combine artisanal tradition with a modern and dynamic vision. For those wishing to immerse themselves in the world of beer made with heart and ingenuity, this microbrewery is an unmissable stop.
