Leandro Barbosa
In the countryside of São Paulo, Piracicaba is famous for its craft beer and cachaça
production. A must-see tour is to get to know Dama Bier factory, traditional brewery from
Piracicaba that has reached national reputation. Take the chance to visit the local cachaçarias
[cachaça bars] which produce the beverage in a craft way. Together with the beverages, try the
famous grilled fish at Rua do Porto and the traditional pamonha [paste made from fresh corn
and milk, wrapped in corn husks] from Piracicaba, famous in the whole State. In the neighbor
city of Americana, just 38 km away from Piracicaba, do not miss enjoying Festa do Peão de
Boiadeiro de Americana [cowboy’s peasant party in Americana], one of the largest in the State
of São Paulo.
