Birra Baladin is an Italian craft brewery founded by Teo Musso in the small Piedmontese town of Piozzo, in the Cuneo province of northern Italy. Musso is widely regarded as the "father" of the Italian craft beer movement, a visionary brewer who helped put Italian artisan beer on the international map. His brewery, Birreria Le Baladin, grew from a small local brewpub into one of the most celebrated craft beer brands in Italy and beyond. Baladin's portfolio is broad and distinctive, drawing inspiration from Belgian brewing traditions while incorporating Italian flair, local ingredients, and creative experimentation. The brewery is known for its use of spices, which Musso considers an integral part of beer history, as well as its exploration of varied fermentation techniques and raw materials. Among its notable releases is Nazionale Glutenfree, brewed with Carnaroli rice from the Vercelli region, showcasing the brewery's commitment to Italian terroir and ingredient innovation. Teo Musso's international reputation extends to collaborations with celebrated brewers such as Sam Calagione of Dogfish Head, and Baladin beers have been featured in prestigious venues including Eataly locations worldwide. The brewery continues to operate with a philosophy rooted in craftsmanship, music, and a deep passion for the art of brewing.
