Lieviteria

Lieviteria is at the same time a brewery (10 hL system and 115 hL cellar), a yeast selection and propagation laboratory (under development) and a Brewpub for serving self-produced beers.

The objective is to create simple recipes but with a precise character, capable of impacting the drinker despite their essentiality.

Six years after its birth, there are 16 beers in the range for a total of approximately 450 hL/year (the plant is expanding for a potential production of 800 hL/year).

Some of the beer styles offered by us reflect so-called “forgotten” beer styles, the result of in-depth studies regarding the most ancient brewing traditions where the fermentable raw materials used often differ from the classic barley malt, such as wheat, rye or oats.

Hence the interest in exploring native biodiversity in order to find ferments capable of characterizing the finished product as it was characterized by non-commercial yeasts but handed down from brewer to brewer.

The brewery was born in Castellana Grotte (BA) and is managed by partners Angelo Lovece (Pharmaceutical Chemist) and Rinaldi Pasquale (financial promoter), while the brewer is Angelo Ruggiero, known for the BEREBIRRA blog and finalist BREWER OF THE EMERGING YEAR 2020.

In 2021 we were included in the 50 breweries of the BREWER OF THE YEAR award and our Altbier (Schumi) was included in the best beers of 2021 by the BEER CHRONICLES website.

We are also present in the guides: Le Birre d’Italia by L’Espresso, Atlas of Italian breweries, Guide to beers of Italy by Slow Food.

We also have the record for the production of cider, from apples grown in the Itria Valley, the southernmost part of Italy. These activities have led us to receive several awards from Slow Food.
