Title: Peroni or Birra Moretti?
Post by: berg on August 02, 2013, 11:18:15 pm
having drank a fair few i say the Moretti has the edge, but Peroni seems far more popular?


Whats your favourite lager? Skol?  :grin:

I dont really drink lager in the UK.

In Italy we drank a fair amount of the red labelled Peroni................................................ which was nice.

Peroni are quite nice, prefer Michelob but tbh, anything cold on these hot days is welcome :smiley:

Wife works for the brewer that distributes Corona, which is my lager of choice most of the time.

Can't say I've had moretti but I think peroni is  :sick: ha , lagers for me would be forsters, bud, Stella, amstel and Heineken.

Writing this is tempting me to go sample one or two  :laugh:

Plenty of people. It's a bit sweeter than most so apparently suits the British palate.

Wouldn't touch the gassy, piss-tasting stuff myself.

Corona extra is second best to Red Stripe...you need to drink a few glasses of water before going to bed to cure the hangovers

Have had 3 versions of Peroni, the red labelled one, the most common Nastro and a Gran Reserva one bought in Tesco. Didn't go much on the first, like the 2nd, but not the price in pubs (£4.10 a pint in my local!) and the 3rd was a right head banger and far too strong to be enjoyable. Had that syrupy Special Brew vibe about the flavour.

They are obviously German and fairly rare in this county. A few places have bitburger on tap... but ive never seen Veltins this side of the North Sea.

Bitburger and Veltins both available from any Tesco around here, and a local pub has Bitburger on draught  :drinking:

I like Veltins but I'm battered after three pints so I don't drink the stuff anymore.

Hacker-Pschorr 'Helles' from Beers of Europe website , the taste of Munich! Absolutely outstanding. I would rather drink my own ice cold piss than drink Carling or Fosters , absolutely rancid.
