Tip: The names map the city: order a Valera or a Pilotta and you are drinking Parma geography. The brewpub kitchen runs full dinners.

Birrificio del Ducato, founded in Parma's Bassa in 2007, is Italy's most-medalled craft brewery; Viaemilia took Best Pilsner at the 2026 Cerevisia Awards.
Order: Viaemilia, the grower-hopped pils that built the reputation.
Tip: Book the guided tasting through their site and pair the trip with Soragna's Rocca; the brewery sits out on the Argine road.
