As everyone should already know, the eighth edition of the Salone del Gusto will be held in Turin from October 21st to 25th, 2010. According to an established tradition, the beer will be one of the “food” protagonists of the event, a detail confirmed by the controversy roused last July on the disposal of the brewers’ stands (for a review read the post I wrote in Italian). Beyond the logistical issues, I think it is interesting to find out what events will focus on our favorite beverage.

'10Introducing the Slow Food “Guida alle birre d’Italia” 2011
Yesterday afternoon in Rome the 2011 Italian beer Guide by Slow Food was officially presented. As you may know, this is one of the most important issue on Italian craft beer, which offers a detailed survey on Italian brewers and their beers, with descriptions, specifications and evaluations. The event was hosted by Vinòforum, a long standing Capitoline wine event. Certainly not a “friendly environment”, but this suggests the important status achieved by beer among wine lovers.

Every two years the city of Bra (CN) hosts an event that represents one of the jewels of Slow Food. It’s Cheese, an exhibition exploring the world of cheese, with the participation of producers and industry professionals from all around the world. From Friday 18 to Monday 21 September will take the 2009 edition of this event, that the beer lovers always eagerly await because of the large space devoted to our favorite drink. And even in this case the expectations will not be disappointed…
