FROM BIRRA DOLOMITI:
THE BEER: Birra Dolomiti, a blond lager from Fabbrica in Pedavena, Veneto, Italy, is a popular choice for crisp beer lovers.
THE PRODUCER: Birra Castello SpA was founded in 1997 in San Giorgio di Nogaro (UD) by acquiring the ancient Birra Moretti brewery from a well-known multinational. In 2004, ownership passed to the current shareholders. An important program was decided to relaunch the Castello brand and develop branded products for large-scale distribution in Italy and abroad. Significant investments were made, making the San Giorgio plant one of the most modern and efficient in Italy. In 2006, the historic Pedavena brewery (BL) , founded in 1897, was acquired, thus enriching itself with quality, know-how and brewing tradition. In 2023, the San Giorgio di Nogaro plant was sold and the proceeds were invested in the Pedavena plant. Today the group is one of the first beer producers with 100% Italian capital.
