El Issor Brewery: Passion and Craftsmanship in the Heart of Sassello
El Issor Brewery, founded in 2011 in Sassello, in the province of Savona, represents a true excellence in the landscape of Italian craft microbreweries. Born from the passion of Luca Rossi, a homebrewer who decided to turn his hobby into a professional activity, the brewery takes its name from an anagram of its founder, paying tribute to a personal and unique project.
With an annual production of about 50,000 liters, El Issor stands out for its ability to blend tradition and innovation, offering beers with a well-defined identity but always capable of surprising. Among the styles offered, it is possible to find Belgian, British, and American influences, reinterpreted with originality and artisanal care.
An Authentic and Original Taste Experience
Among the most appreciated labels is Xel, a quadrupel with an alcohol content of 10.5%, famous for its complex and intense profile. This beer is characterized by notes of:
- ripe fruit
- biscuit
- spices
that make every sip a sensory journey. El Issor’s production is the testimony of meticulous attention to ingredients and fermentation processes, fundamental elements to achieve a high-quality product.
The brewery is located at Viale Rimembranza 12/A, 17046 Sassello (SV), a location that offers a welcoming and informal atmosphere, ideal for tasting the various creations onsite. The indoor and outdoor spaces are designed to ensure comfort and conviviality, while the presence of free parking, both covered and street parking, facilitates visits even for those arriving by car. Particularly appreciated is the attention to accessibility: the venue is accessible to people with disabilities and is pet-friendly, allowing visitors to spend time in the company of their four-legged friends.
The Added Value of the Territory
In addition to beers, El Issor’s offering is enriched with local artisanal products, such as the renowned Taggiasca olives, further enhancing the connection with the Ligurian territory. This synergy between brewery and local gastronomic excellences is often highlighted by visitors, who praise the friendliness of the staff and the typically rustic and family-like atmosphere.
For those who wish to continue the experience outside the venue, several El Issor beers are available in selected pubs and shops in the area, thus offering the opportunity to enjoy these craft productions comfortably at home.
El Issor Brewery thus represents a virtuous example of how passion, expertise, and respect for tradition can merge into high-quality beers, capable of telling the story and identity of a territory rich in culture and flavors.
