Bastian Contrario has brewed independently in Parma since 2015, growing from a pub into a brand with its own kit, eleven taps and a 1969 trailer bar.
Order: A taster row across Miss Matilda, Agosto 1922 and Dusky Treat.
Tip: Italia a Tavola profiled the project in 2025 as Parma's craft reference point; the Strada Inzani public house is where the full range pours nightly.
