Overview
Birra Italia is an Italian beer brand that was founded in 1906 during the Belle Époque period. Its first brewery was located in Milan on Corso Sempione, where it produced three types of beer: a light, a dark, and a high-gravity beer, using pure water from three wells inside the factory. In the 1930s, the brewery absorbed Birra Milano, Birra Seriate (owned by Wunster), and Birreria Ambrosiana. In 2020, Italianbev acquired the brand. The beer is made from barley malt, water, hops, and hop extract, and is positioned as a premium beer combining artisanal knowledge with advanced technology.
