  • Italy is considered to be part of the wine belt of Europe. Nevertheless, beer, particularly mass-produced pale lagers, are common in the country. It is traditionally considered to be an ideal accompaniment to pizza; since the 1970s, beer has spread from pizzerias and has become much more popular for drinking in other situations. In the seventh century BC in Sicily, the Phoenicians traded and consumed beer. In Piedmont, Pombia, Province of Novara, an archaeological investigation found tombs from the Golasecca culture, including a tomb from 560 BC containing traces of beer. Ancient Rome knew of beer and produced small amounts, but the systems of production were destroyed in various barbarian invasions. The first medical school, the Schola Medica Salernitana, praised the substance stating that it "supports old age, flows through the veins, increases well-being, and strengthens the blood." On the occasion of his wedding, Ludovico Sforza distributed beer freely to the Milanese. At this time, it was referred to in Florence as "barley wine". The first brewery in Italy, according to Hermes Zampollo, was "Spluga" in Chiavenna, which opened in 1840. However, the company Wührer stated that its brewing commenced in Brescia in 1829. The first person in Italy to cultivate hops for beer brewing was in 1847. In 1983, the country consumed 12 million hectolitres (260 million imperial gallons; 320 million US gallons) of beer. As of 2010, Italy has a beer consumption of 30 litres (6.6 imp gal; 7.9 US gal) per capita per year. (en)

  • Secondo la legislazione vigente, in Italia la birra è "la denominazione riservata al prodotto ottenuto dalla fermentazione alcolica con ceppi di Saccharomyces carlsbergensis o di Saccharomyces cerevisiae di un mosto preparato con malto, anche torrefatto, di orzo o di frumento o di loro miscele ed acqua, amaricato con luppolo o suoi derivati o con entrambi. La fermentazione alcolica del mosto può essere integrata con una fermentazione lattica. Il malto di orzo o di frumento può essere sostituito con altri cereali, anche rotti o macinati o sotto forma di fiocchi, nonché con materie prime amidacee e zuccherine nella misura massima del 40% calcolato sull'estratto secco del mosto".
