The breweries displayed with a yellow background do not appear anymore on the list of the Federal Customs, yet seem to be still active. I will keep them for some time in the hope that they will regulate their situation.

| "Brewer: Jorg Bolanz. | One of the two biggest breweries in Ticino with an approximate output of 3000 hl yearly. Brews 7 core beers in Anglo-American and Belgian styles. Moved from Stabio to Bioggio in 2021. The former brewery (Mendrisio and then Stabio) went bankrupt at the beginning of 2016 and has been bought by Schützengarten some months later. The brewery has been ""reloaded"" under a new registry number (was formerly 147; looks there for additional information)." Broken City | Founded in 2016 Strada Ponte Di Valle 4 | 6964 Davesco #881

Pretty creative and diversified since their beginning already, Officina della Birra is clearly a pioneer of craft beer in Switzerland.

Offers 8 core beers, 2 seasonals and many limited editions, mostly in Anglo-American styles, brewed on a 10 hl installation. Has 4 employees.

| "Client brewer offering 4 core beers in german styles. | An ambitious company which planed at its start to control 10% of the beer market from Ticino and to reach 2500 to 3000 hl after 2 years. Until the local plant is built, the beer is actually brewed by Rosengarten. But after many years there is still no brewery to see and the company has to face financial problems. Will their dream comes true ? For myself, I'm ready to bet on a negative denouement." |
