Agrilab: an agricultural microbrewery in the heart of Campagnano di Roma
Agrilab is an innovative agricultural enterprise located in Campagnano di Roma, founded in 2011 by the Amadei family with the aim of renewing and expanding the local agricultural tradition. Born from the commitment of entrepreneur Silvia Amadei, Agrilab represents a virtuous example of a multifunctional company that skillfully combines the cultivation of agricultural products with the craftsmanship of beer production.
An authentic and sustainable craft beer
In 2016 Agrilab inaugurated its own craft brewery, creating a deep connection between the land and the final product. The barley used in the beers is grown directly on the company’s land, located near Vallelunga, covering about eight hectares. Since 2019, the company has started cultivating two-row beer barley, malted in Italy, which forms the basis of their artisanal agricultural beer.
Agrilab’s beers stand out for being:
- Unfiltered
- Unpasteurized
- Without added carbon dioxide
These characteristics allow them to offer a range of seasonal and customized beers that express the genuineness and naturalness of the raw materials used, keeping intact the authentic flavor of agricultural beer.
A short supply chain approach for genuine products
Agrilab values the concept of zero kilometer, focusing on a short supply chain that guarantees freshness and quality. In addition to beer production, the on-site shop offers a wide selection of genuine agricultural products:
- Seasonal vegetables and fruits
- Fresh eggs
- Extra virgin olive oil
- Honey and artesanal jams
- Savory creams and much more
The company carries out direct deliveries, bringing the highest quality products grown respecting nature’s rhythms directly to customers' tables.
An immersive experience between nature and tradition
Agrilab is not just a production site but also an ideal destination for those seeking an authentic and educational experience related to the agricultural world and the culture of craft beer. The company organizes guided tours and tastings, aimed both at schools, with educational programs, and adults and families.
The facilities welcoming visitors are designed to offer comfort and a welcoming atmosphere:
- An air-conditioned hall with large windows overlooking the olive garden
- A room with a pellet stove for winter
- A tuff-dug cave, with a constant temperature around 18°C, ideal for beer storage
- Outdoor areas equipped with a playground for children and a picnic area with wooden huts
The avenues of cypress trees, olive trees, and roses leading to the entrance make Agrilab a true corner of nature and well-being, perfect for lovers of authentic gastronomy immersed in the rural landscape.
A philosophy based on quality and sustainability
At the heart of Agrilab’s vision is respect for the environment, biodiversity, and Italian agricultural traditions. With a strong commitment to sustainability, the company works to preserve the rural identity of the territory, following natural methods respectful of seasonal cycles.
Supporting Agrilab means contributing to a conscious and responsible production model that looks to the future with the goal of keeping alive the bond between man, land, and product, through a choice of quality and authenticity, which today represents a precious rarity in the landscape of Italian microbreweries.
