The Valle d’Aosta’s Alpine climate, characterized by cold continental conditions, influences the local agriculture and, consequently, the brewing ingredients. The region is home to unique flora and fauna, which are often incorporated into the brewing process. For instance, the use of red rosehip berries and Valle d’Aosta apples in beers like La Rouge and La Blanche showcases the integration of local produce into traditional brewing methods.
Brewing Heritage in the Heart of the Alps
Valle d’Aosta’s craft beer story is one of reverence for the land and history. Small, family-run breweries have emerged over recent decades, blending classic European beer styles with a distinct Alpine character. These microbreweries harness the region’s pure mountain water and native flora to produce beers that speak to both tradition and innovation.
