Birrificio Angelo Poretti Beer

Birrificio Angelo Poretti is a classic Italian beer brand with a heritage dating back to 1877. It was founded by Angelo Poretti in Valganna, Northern Italy, after he spent years traveling through Austria, Bohemia, and Bavaria to master the art of brewing. The brand is famously known for its hop-based categorization (e.g., 3 Luppoli, 4 Luppoli), emphasizing the specific blends of hops used in each recipe.

While the brand maintains its historical heart at the Induno Olona brewery in Varese, Italy, its global distribution has led to expanded production. Over the decades, the company transitioned from family ownership to being part of the Carlsberg Group. Today, it is a key international brand within the Carlsberg portfolio, marketed often as a premium world beer that pairs particularly well with food. Production typically occurs at the original Italian site for domestic and premium export markets, though like many global brands, it may be brewed in other Carlsberg facilities worldwide to meet regional demand.
