Calcabir
“Calcabir” is a beer produced by “Birrificio Montegioco”*. Lungavilla pumpkin flesh is oven baked and then added (30%) to a barley malt wort. After a maturation process into stainless steel fermenters lasting 30 days, beer is bottled and re-fermented. The final result is a light beer (5% alcohol).

The headquarters are located in Grue Valley, at the border between Piemonte, Liguria, Lombardia and Emilia Romagna (Northern Italy). Montegioco beers are exported to Europe and the USA.
