Description
Il Birrificio prende il nome dalla sorgente del Lambro, il nostro amato e tanto bistrattato fiume, simbolo, nel bene e nel male, di questo territorio (una sorgente particolare, purissima, che un po’ mena… un po’ resta… viva, come la nostra birra!).
Il logo riproduce la sperada, tipica acconciatura femminile in uso in Brianza fino all’inizio del ‘900, ornamento che le spose indossavano il giorno del matrimonio e che univa trasversalmente la gente di ogni estrazione sociale. Come solo può fare la birra!

Bottle at Leighton’s Euro Semi-Final tasting. It pours deep brown, with a massive beige head. The nose is pine, caramel, resin, roasted malt and liquorice. The taste is pine, charcoal, roasted malt, touch of caramel sweetness, coffee and decent bitterness, with a dry, roasty finish. Medium body and average carbonation. Good balance, flavoursome and easy drinking. Like it.
