Birrificio La Piazza

Managed by brewmaster Riccardo Miscioscia, Birrificio la Piazza is one of the most popular, successful enterprises to come out of Piazza dei Mestieri, a vocational training and community hub opened in 2004 in the San Donato quarter. The brewery is the beating heart of the project. On the one hand it is a pub – serving excellent bar meals of sandwiches, focaccias, fries and single dishes – on the other it is a craft beer production centre. One of its standout beers is Chellerina, a lager that aspires to become the “typical beer of Turin” thanks to a recipe that reproduces the one adopted in the past by the city’s historical breweries. But its real prize-winner is American Jasper, a German-inspired brew with a powerful flavour made with American hops. At the start of 2026, thanks to synergy with the social enterprise Terza Settimana, La Piazza doubled the business, opening a new beer and food joint at Via Perosa 32/a, which works in unison with the other places in the complex, from the public baths, which date from the 1930s to the social market dedicated to the neediest.
