    LIQUIDA Birrificio Indipendente

    Emilia-Romagna, Italy

    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.
