Birra Canzio

Italian Pilsner - ABV 4.8%

Kent’s first brush with the Romans came in 55 BC when Julius Caesar unsuccessfully invaded Kent at Ebbsfleet. A year later a more successful landing at Pegwell Bay carried Julius Caesar eventually to London.

The iron age celtic people who lived in Kent were called the ‘Cantiaci’. The capital was Durovernum Cantiacorum, now modern day Canterbury, and the region was named the civitas of ‘Cantium’.

Julius Caesar wrote in ‘The Gallic War’: “of all the Britons the inhabitants of Cantium, an entirely maritime district, are by far the most vivilised, differing but little from the Gallic manner of life”.

Cantium is translated in modern italian as ‘Canzio’. Birra Banzio or ‘Beer of Kent’, is our homage to the new style of pilsner lager that the Italians Have made their own. Perfect with a plate of pasta or with roasted Romney Marsh lamb.
