La Campanile is a Christmas Ale with a warm and enveloping character, inspired by Anglo-Saxon Winter Warmers and reinterpreted with Italian sensitivity. On the nose, festive aromas immediately emerge: cinnamon, clove, coriander and bitter orange peel. On the palate it is soft and rich, built on a base of caramel and toasted malts recalling spiced biscuits, honey and dried fruit. The 7% strength provides a pleasant warmth, while the spices integrate harmoniously. The finish is long and comforting, with notes of cinnamon and bitter orange that invite the next sip.

WHERE THIS BEER IS BORN
The bell tower whose bells echo centuries of history,
preserving the traditions and identity of this community
The bell tower that unites past and present
The bell tower of San Vittore has risen majestically in the heart of Cannobio since the 13th century, built from squared blocks of local stone by the master builders Rusca de Soma and Girardo de Sauxa. This Romanesque tower of medieval origin has stood the test of time, preserving its role as both a spiritual and civic landmark for the entire Cannobio community. Originally conceived as a civic tower and bell tower...
The bell tower that unites past and present
Originally conceived as a civic tower and bell tower, this building has always fulfilled a dual role: on one hand it marked the rhythm of religious life through the sound of its bells, while on the other it served as a point of reference for civic gatherings and community decisions. Its bells, initially only two, called the population not only to religious services but also to moments of particular importance in collective life. Our Campanile is born from the inspiration of this sense of temporal continuity, where traditions are passed down from generation to generation through the centuries. Like the sound of bells echoing through cold winter nights announcing the arrival of the Christmas season, our Christmas Ale carries with it the warmth of tradition and the magic of anticipation. The bond with the bell tower represents that joyful solemnity that defines Christmas: a moment of reflection and celebration that unites past and present. Just as the bells spread their message of peace and joy from the tower, every sip of our Campanile carries the echo of those authentic values that make the holiday season a unique moment of sharing and human warmth.
