Beer Festival "a Caduta" of Rhêmes-Notre-Dame

A Different Kind of Beer Festival

The Festa della Birra a Caduta in Rhêmes-Notre-Dame, a small municipality in the Province of Aosta nestled in the Gran Paradiso National Park, is an event that defies the clichés of typical beer festivals. Here, the keyword is quality: Ganter beer, unpasteurized and without added gas, is tapped "a caduta" (gravity-fed) and served in half-litre and litre glass mugs to preserve its organoleptic characteristics.

In the Pavilions of Frazione Bruil

The festival takes place in Frazione Bruil, the main hamlet of the municipality, in two connected and fully heated pavilions that offer shelter from the unpredictable high mountain weather. Alongside the beer, the kitchen offers typical Aosta Valley dishes, while live music accompanies the evenings. Ample parking and a free tent area are available for those who want to enjoy the festival without worrying about getting home.

An End-of-Summer Event

Scheduled for the second-to-last weekend of August, the Festa della Birra a Caduta is organized by the Pro Loco of Rhêmes-Notre-Dame and is one of the most beloved events in the Rhêmes Valley. It's an opportunity to discover one of the most picturesque corners of the Aosta Valley, where the conviviality of good beer meets the wild beauty of Gran Paradiso.
