Birrificio del Vallo - Rudeboy: Craft Excellence in the Heart of the Vallo di Diano

In the picturesque village of Buonabitacolo, nestled in the greenery of the Vallo di Diano, stands the Birrificio del Vallo, also known as Rudeboy. Founded in 2008 by Domenico Lapenta, this microbrewery represents one of the most authentic and innovative realities in the province of Salerno. Domenico, originally from Northern Italy, chose to return to the land of his parents to realize his brewing dream, bringing with him a wealth of experience gained under the guidance of expert artisans in the field.

The name Rudeboy comes from Jamaican slang, referring to a 'rude boy', a lover of ska, rocksteady, and reggae musical cultures. This origin suggests the young and dynamic nature of the brewery, where respect for tradition blends with a constant pursuit of innovation and quality.

A Journey Through Authentic Flavors and Diverse Brewing Styles

The brewery has a 7-hectolitre brewing system and boasts an annual production of around 110 hectolitres. Rudeboy offers a broad and varied selection, ranging from bottom to top fermenting beers with clear nods to both Central European and British traditions. Among the most appreciated creations are:

Bussentina: a Bohemian Pilsner with a fresh and slightly bitter taste, perfect for those who love light and well-structured beers.
Sant'Andrea: double malt English Pale Ale, characterized by a full body and an elegant balance between sweetness and bitterness.
Carpe Diem: Dark Ale rich in toasted notes and with a persistent aftertaste that captivates dark beer enthusiasts.
Rudeboy: intense and creamy Irish Stout, whose fullness is its distinctive strength.
Limited Edition: amber beer offered in a limited edition, featuring an exclusive recipe that changes with each release.
Zamaun: IPA with an intense aromatic profile, made with selected hops and a decisive bitterness that highlights its personality.

Each beer is born from the careful selection of ingredients, always of the highest quality, and the use of traditional processing techniques, an element that gives each label a unique and distinctive character.

Birrificio del Vallo - Rudeboy is not only a point of reference for craft beer lovers but also a place where the passion for music and Jamaican culture is celebrated. This combination of authentic flavors and engaging sounds makes the tasting experience even more intense and memorable, turning every sip into a sensory journey that tells stories of distant lands and traditions revisited with an innovative spirit.
