Established in Chieri in 2003 as a brewpub, Grado Plato moved to Montaldo Torinese in 2009 and became a brewery in a facility suitable for producing and stocking ingredients, thus making it possible to manage and control the entire production process.
The passion of owners Giorgio Milano and brothers Simone and Stefano Bagnasco and the quality of the ingredients used have combined to earn the brewery numerous prestigious accolades over the years. The range consists of 11 different labels, mostly German in style, including Sveva (a low-alcohol lager), Strada San Felice (made with chestnuts from the Val Mongia), Melissa (flavoured with honey), Kukumerla (with notes of peaches preserved in syrup), and Chocarrubica (an original creation made with cocoa beans), all on sale in characteristic 75 cl bottles with wire swing caps. There are also two IPAs in smaller 33 cl bottles: Bingo (a double IPA with Japanese hops) and Ipa (lighter, with American hops and notes of grapefruit). Reinebeer, spiced with cinnamon and ginger, is brewed exclusively for the Christmas period.
In 2021 a farm was established in Piobesi Torinese to grow barley for malting and thus allow total control over the supply chain.
