Birra Ichnusa
The beer of Sardinia — Birra Ichnusa ('Ichnusa' is the ancient Greek name for Sardinia) was founded in 1912 in Cagliari and became the island's defining product. Now owned by Heineken Italia, Ichnusa is produced in the same Cagliari facility and has become one of Italy's most beloved regional brands — associated with Sardinian identity, the island's beaches and the Mediterranean lifestyle. The Non Filtrata variant is one of Italy's most successful craft-leaning mainstream products.

How we measure this
Two thresholds are at work here:
- The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
- The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.
A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
