Questa

It was in 2007 that the Sparacio husband
and wife team opened their Gilac brewery.
Their past was only apparently removed from
their new business. Salvatore, having worked as
managing director in important multinationals,
provided organizational skills and recipes.
Claudia, on the other hand, was a biologist and
took charge of productive aspects. Salvatore’s
brother, Vincenzo, is a musician and he uses
his creativity in the communications and
marketing departments. “Beers for imbibing”
— that could be the Gilac slogan. Meaning
no fireworks, but the constant pursuit of non-
banal simplicity and product characterization.
Of all the beers on offer, we recommend
Bionda (pale, made exclusively with organically
certified primary ingredients) and Diva Gold
(also pale, bottle-conditioned and perfected
with the Mèthode Champenoise to produce
spumante-like fizziness). The vast range also
includes two amber beers, Alma and Sohpie,
another three pale beers, Caesar, Diva and
Dorita, and a white beer, Guenda, with delicate
fruity, spicy notes. Closed Sunday.
