Hop Skin: the craft microbrewery of Curno

Located in the heart of Curno, in the province of Bergamo, Hop Skin is a microbrewery that has won over craft beer enthusiasts since 2013. Founded by Gioia Ravasio and Paolo Algeri, Hop Skin was born from years of home experimentation before opening its doors to the public in 2014, offering an authentic and original proposal in the Italian beer scene.

The brewery stands out for production inspired by American models, with unfiltered and unpasteurized beers that enhance Anglo-American styles. Among the most famous creations are:

Crazy Paul: an American Saison with a fresh character and a full body, reaching 6.5% alcohol.
Ein Rauch: a smoked Märzen with a enveloping taste, at 5.2% alcohol, appreciated for its unique intensity.

A complete tasting experience

Besides producing high-quality beers, Hop Skin offers visitors a welcoming and modern taproom, perfect for tasting beers straight from the source. The indoor hall, together with the outdoor area, can host about eighty people, ensuring a relaxed and convivial atmosphere. Here, craft beer is paired with a food offering designed to enhance the flavors, with proposals such as:

Gourmet hamburgers
Boards of selected cured meats and cheeses
Tasty sandwiches
BBQ specialties with a bold flavor

Hop Skin is not only beer but also a meeting point for lovers of good food and mindful drinking. Over time, it has been able to organize special events that have strengthened its bond with the community and enthusiasts, such as the tenth anniversary in 2024, an occasion during which new beers and exclusive food proposals were presented.

For those who wish to take the experience home, it is possible to buy beers directly at the brewery. The venue is easily accessible, equipped with parking and all the necessary services to guarantee accessibility also for people with disabilities.
