Catharina is the first Italian craft beer flavored with the typical spices of the Panforte of Siena, a local sweet specialty: pepper, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and others, in a secret and exclusive combination.
A limited edition, ideal to pair with aged cheeses, desserts and dry pastries, besides being perfect also as a med-itation beer. The name of this beer is inspired by Saint Catherine of Sienna, who lived between Sien-na (the city of Panforte) and the Val dāOrcia.
LIMITED EDITION Unfiltered beer, unpasteurized and subjected to a second fermentation in the bottle. The slight cloudiness or any sediments on the bottom are characteristic of the artisanal product and do not affect the quality of the taste
CRAFTMANSHIP
Craftsmanship for us is not just a way of production, but it is a company philosophy
The first big difference between craft and industrial beers lays, of course, in the production process: in industrial beers it includes two phases that are not in craft production: pasteurization and filtration.
These two phases are aimed at obtaining a longer storage period and to standardize the taste, eliminating any natural variations, which, instead, remain in craft beer, enhancing all the flavors and aromas of its ingredients.
Moreover, the absence of these two phases is the reason why our beers do not have added carbon dioxide, in fact, since they are not pasteurized, the remaining yeasts themselves naturally produce the carbon dioxide that makes our bubbles.
But for us craftsmanship also lies in the very close relationship with our land and its products, which become distinctive ingredients of beers that are always unique and original.
Finally, craftsmanship is in the obsessive care that we put even in the small details, not only of our products and their packaging, but also of our collaborations and synergies and in the relationship with the people who work and grow in our brewery.

PRODUCT INFORMATION
MORE INFORMATION
The beginning of Birrificio San Quirico story reveals our goal: we did not choose a product and then looked for the ingredients to do it, but we selected "our" ingredient around which we have built a top-quality product. As our name itself indicates, the connection with our land is not only a geographical element, but also the past that we carry inside and the future to which we look. The brewery's project was born of the desire to give value to a product, the cereals of the Val d'Orcia, which speaks of the history of these lands, once called the "wheat belt of Tuscany".
