YOUR EXPERIENCE IN BRIEF

• Experience personally guided by the master brewer
• Complete workshop covering all phases of craft beer production
• Tasting of 3 beer types: Blonde, Weizen, Pale Ale
• Discovery of curiosities and insights about the beer world and local typical products
• Outdoor space available for tasting

THE “COTTA” PROCESS

With this experience, you will discover the secrets of the brewing world by immersing yourself in the heart of craft beer production. You should know that "Cotta" refers to the brewing phase when the beer wort is produced.

This ancient technique has remained almost unchanged over the centuries, evolving mainly in equipment and temperature management of the brewing tanks and production areas. Strict sanitation ensures the quality and purity of the final product.

During this experience, you will personally live through the key stages of beer wort preparation:

• Malt grinding
• Mashing and saccharification
• Boiling and hopping
• Cooling and start of fermentation

BEERS FOR TASTING

At the end of the production phase, you will taste three different styles of craft beer, the result of extensive research and experimentation by Marino. The goal is to highlight the territory and its agricultural productions, using local raw materials such as:

• Ancient local wheats
• Hops grown in the Sannio area
• Must from indigenous Sannio vineyards

The beers you will taste include light, amber, and dark variants, made with zero-kilometer ingredients like:

• 100% Italian malt
• Whole hop flowers
• Rye
• Chestnut honey

All beers are produced exclusively with artisanal methods: unfiltered, unpasteurized, naturally refermented in the bottle, without added preservatives, clarifying agents, or chemical additives commonly used in the industry.

EXTRA, OPTIONAL: TAGLIERE OF LOCAL MATESE PRODUCTS KM 0

By adding this extra to your experience, you can accompany the various beer styles with a delicious platter produced by a nearby farm, which makes high-quality cheeses and cold cuts exclusively from animals raised locally.
