San Gabriel Le Birre
About
San Gabriel Brewery, founded in 1997 by Gabriele Tonon, is a proud craft beer house that blends Bavarian brewing traditions with the terroir of the Veneto region. Located in the historic village of Ponte di Piave, the brewery sits in an ancient villa beside the former Benedictine Abbey, where medieval brewers once mixed medicinal concoctions. Today, San Gabriel produces a diverse portfolio that includes classic Helles, amber lagers, fresh wheat beers, and a rotating range of seasonal and special editions such as the autumn‑spiced DELL’APOSTO and the zesty ZEN. Visitors can explore the brewing facility, taste the on‑site bar’s selection, dine in the Osteria della Birra, shop for bottled brews, and enjoy coffee from the nearby Piave Caffè, making it a full cultural experience for beer enthusiasts and food lovers alike.
