About BeerFort
Beer and Tradition in Piuro
The BeerFort Festival is a gastronomic and cultural event held in Piuro, a municipality in Valchiavenna in the province of Sondrio, at the Belfort archaeological area. The event is dedicated to the cultivation of hops and the agricultural traditions of the region.
A Place Steeped in History
The setting is the Belfort archaeological area, a site that preserves the memory of Piuro's past. Here, the festival intertwines the enhancement of historical heritage with the discovery of local products, particularly beer and hop-related crops.
