Silver medal for Citrusina and Giubilo.

The latter is a gluten-free European lager, designed for beer lovers with specific dietary needs.
The American IPA Euforia won bronze, having previously secured first place among Calabrian IPAs in the Beer Calabria competition.
The World Beer Awards judges, selected among bartenders, journalists, brand ambassadors, consultants and buyers, also awarded silver and bronze medals to the IGA di Calabria beers through their strictly blind tastings.

Antonio De Caprio, who today leads the brewery together with his brothers Alfredo, Marida and Marco, expresses his «great satisfaction for these results» and he admirably emphasizes that the brewery was born only two years ago, thanks to the brilliant intuition he shared with his father, Luigi.
An exchange of ideas between father and son, which first became a dream and, today, a solid reality.
«The significant number of awards won in England – continues Antonio De Caprio – confirms the quality of our beers and the continuity of our work, made of passion, commitment and winning strategies. Eight awards at our debut in the prestigious and exclusive world of the Merano Wine Festival are proof that Birra Cala, with its strong Calabrese identity, is part of the craft breweries that can have their say at a national level and beyond. The awards to our IGAs – concludes De Caprio – confirm that being able to work as a team to promote identity and excellence, rewards at the highest levels».
