Description
Our beers are made of passion and knowledge, culture and innovation, memories and visions of endless worlds real and futuristic.

Giovanni Campari founded Birrificio del Ducato together with two other partners. Giovanni is still the brewmaster of the brewery, which officially began the production of craft beer on March 27th 2007 in Roncole Verdi, Busseto (PR). The historic production site was transformed into Sour Brewery in 2015, when we transferred the main brewery to the new headquarters in Soragna (PR). Here we produce the main beer lines, through a fully automated system, which includes advanced PLC controls and centrifugal separator. The brewery currently has a 60-hl 5-vessel brewhouse and a total cellar capacity of 1200 hl.

At the end of 2016 Duvel Moortgat acquired 35% of the shares of the brewery. In 2018 Duvel Moortgat acquired 70% of the brewery’s shares, investing its resources in a new laboratory and in a new bottling line.

Flaska av god vän. Svartbrun vätska med tunt kaffefärgat skum. Urvattnad kaffedoft med antydan av vaniljextrakt. Det är tråkigt att konstatera men vattnigheten är dryckens mest framträdande smak. Sthlm vatten borde vara stolta vid en sådan recension, för det deras dryck smakar mer än denna. Denna ledsna produkt är dock en öl och borde egentligen leverera det som är tryckt på etiketten.

Mild säuerlicher Beginn, kräutrig nach Wermut was durchaus klar hervorkommt und mit der Zeit anzusteigen scheint. Süffig, trocken, passende Intensität. Mittellanger, stark kräutriger Abgang, harmonisch. Super! 10/13/13/13//13

Bottle shared at Prodigal Son share. Thanks Tim M. or Jon? Pours an unclear copper with red highlights and a small off-white head that dissipates. Lovely raspberry forward nose with slight vinous aromas and oak as it warms. Creamy raspberry and oak-y vanilla notes on the palate. Very nice and surprisingly lots of flavor for the 5% abv. Lingering raspberry and oak on the finish. Like a raspberry oud bruin in a way.

Pours pale yellow with the slightest hint of haziness. Fizzy white disappears instantly, despite visible carbonation in the liquid. Surprisingly weak aroma: a light cereal base and prickly citric hints. Taste is luckily brighter with a cereal malt base, citric notes of mainly lemon, prickly/spicy and mineral hints, light saltiness. Overall quite on the sweet side with moderate sourness bringing freshness and balance. Very light in body with average, fizzy carbonation; goes down easy. The beer was really nothing special, though it did it's job at being refreshing. Really nothing more than just that though.
