Brera Afterglow
End of Summer by Branca.
Milan, September 9, 2025 – In the vibrant heart of Milan, the Brera district is preparing to host an exclusive and refined event to bid farewell to summer, an occasion that brings together the history of an iconic venue and that of a legendary brand: "Brera Afterglow – End of Summer by Branca", an exceptional evening featuring music and a gastronomic experience, celebrating a truly Milanese milestone and the success of the Brera Cocktail, a creation that embodies the essence of this international city. The event at Bar Brera is set for Wednesday, September 18 at 6 PM, with a DJ set, signature drinks, and gourmet dishes.
Born from the historic partnership between Bar Brera and Fernet-Branca, the “Brera” is not just a simple blend of flavors, but a true experience that pays tribute to Milanese history and elegance. Its ochre color, recalling the ancient walls of the artists’ district, gives it a vintage charm that evokes past times and the energy of a metropolis where different cultures blend together. Each sip is a sensory journey combining aromatic depth and spicy notes with a vibrant and persistent freshness—the perfect way to say goodbye to summer and welcome autumn. Its masterful blend is crafted exclusively with ingredients from Fratelli Branca Distillerie: 3 cl of Stravecchio Branca, 4 cl of Carpano Antica Formula, 1 cl of Fernet-Branca, topped with ginger beer. Together, these ingredients tell a story of taste that perfectly matches Milan’s elegance, turning every sip into a sensory experience—an ideal balance of depth, spice, and freshness, perfect for toasting the arrival of autumn.
This cocktail is the perfect expression of a long-standing partnership between two Milanese icons, united by a shared desire to promote art, culture, and conviviality through events, initiatives, and curated experiences. It celebrates the authentic and cosmopolitan soul of the city, transforming every occasion into a tribute to the tradition and innovation that have always defined Milan.
An unmissable opportunity to immerse yourself in a unique atmosphere and sip the essence of Milan to the rhythm of music.
