2. the beer
factory
Our beers are brewed at LA FABBRICA
DELLA BIRRA (The Beer Factory)
TENUTE COLLESI located in the
medieval village called Apecchio, at the
border between Tuscany, Marche,
Umbria and Romagna.
The factory is situated at 700mts above
sea level in the mountainous area of
Monte Nerone. Thanks to this strategic
geographical position COLLESI can
exploit the pure and limpid natural spring
water from Monte Nerone, which has the
ideal characteristics for the beer
production (very calcareous).

3. our
philosophy
Excellence in brewing is all about finding the
perfect balance between craft and science,
between natural ingredients and processes.
All the Collesi Beers – unpasteurized,
unfiltered and naturally re-fermented in the
bottle - are brewed in small batches with the
traditional top fermenting method, with a
moderate hop bitterness profile.
Our objective is to preserve the quality of the
selected raw materials throughout the
brewing process in order to offer to our
consumers full flavored beers, while keeping
freshness, smoothness and pleasantness.

4. our
beers
COLLESI control directly the whole production
cycle, from raw materials to bottling:
 the barley comes from the farm belonging to
the Collesi family
 malting is made in a modern malt house
partially owned by Tenute Collesi
 the water comes from the natural spring of
Monte Nerone
 fermentation is totally made at La Fabbrica
della Birra under the supervision of a Belgian
beer master
 bottling and labeling are also made at our
premises

5. the business
opportunity
 For many consumers Beer is considered as
an alternative to Wine
 Premium Beer is a valid alternative to Wine
for food pairing
 A wide product range is highly valued when
choosing beers
 As for many other alcoholic beverages, there
is room in the market for a premium segment
within the beer market
 Premium beer is the fastest growing beer
segment worldwide
 Recent regulations about “drinking & driving”
suggest consumers to choose beverages with
lower alcohol content

7. about
pricing
Comparison with industrial beers has no
sense (volumes, scale economies, brewing
process, quality, raw materials, etc. are
totally different)
The right comparison is between a bottle of
medium quality wine (e.g. Pinot Grigio) and a
bottle of Collesi Beer.
For approx. the same price, you can get:
 premium vs medium quality
 memorable experience vs drinking as usual
 a story to tell vs a common choice
 more taste, less alcohol
 more chances for the second bottle
( more profit for you and your clients)
