Birra Moretti. Italian, 4.6%

Ahh Italy... Good food? Check. Good weather? Check. Producers of good beer with links to football? Check and check. I'm a bit of a sucker for anything that looks a bit old and chic, so the added bonus of old man Luigi (of course his name's Luigi) being there too is just a delicious bonus. The beer itself is crisp and although a tad heavy/gassy, is a great tin. Ah yes, I can picture it now: it's 1997, Channel 4's James Richardson is unavailable and they need someone to step in and present Football Italia. I proceed to riff with David Platt in a cafe whilst supping on a pint of this in the Mediterranean sun. Bliss. Would I drink again? Sì signore. Get this in your life. 8.5/10.
