Liquida è un progetto che nasce dalla coesione molecolare di 4 ragazzi con un obiettivo comune: fare birra e farla sempre più buona! Il nome si ispira al concetto stesso di liquido, innanzitutto per il suo legame diretto con lo stato della birra come corpo fluido, in evoluzione, in crescita, che conserva il proprio volume ma che tende a prendere la forma del recipiente in cui è posto. Liquida è dinamicità e passione, intraprendenza e meticolosità, è cambiamento, mutamento e trasformazione, è il perfezionamento che darà al “contenitore” le forme più disparate e geniali.

Ottobre 2023, messaggio dallo spazio: una stazione viene lanciata in orbita nella costellazione di Cassiopea. Il nome della stazione spaziale è Cassiopea Beer Corporation e la sua missione è cercare ispirazioni brassicole su altre galassie e su altri pianeti. Al comando di questa missione c’è il birraio Lorenzo Lo Sardo. La sua esperienza terrestre nel mondo della birra nasce tra le mura di casa. Prima del lancio su Cassiopea Lorenzo lavora in diversi birrifici. I nomi delle birre sono viaggi galattici, costellazioni e stelle luminose, mentre le grafiche richiamano in maniera astratta e un po’ retró manifesti, colori e loghi delle grandi missioni spaziali del passato. Tenetevi pronti perchè c’è birra nello spazio!
