Beer Review: Peroni Beer

S.p.A Birra Peroni Brewing Company Peroni Beer

Finally, got a chance to try this Italian import that I have seen popping up more and more. While I know Italy has a local microbrewery scene this is the only brush with Italian brewing that I have encountered. The green bottle is an immediate loss of a couple points but not the biggest deal. I have had great beers in green bottles. The brew pours a light golden color with a very white head. Classic pilsner look. Aroma of light malt. Not too much to smell.

The flavor is a dead ringer for Heineken. Light skunky flavor with a very light malt flavor. Some hoppiness but really nothing powerful. This is a very basic European import pilsner. Something that I am sure most people have had before. Just replace a Heineken label with Peroni and you are there.

I am not big on this beer. It seems like there are endless brands offering this same style of beer. I would like to be able to differentiate this beer but as I feared it is just another import clone. If you are a big Heineken fan give this a try but if you don't like skunky beer stay away. To me, there is nothing new to be found here. This is a disappointing offering from a country that produces such aromatic and flavorful cuisine and wine.

Final Score: 62% (Skunky and Boring. Been Down this Road Too Many Times.)

"The flavor is a dead ringer for Heineken."

Whaaaa...? It's nothing like Heineken! Peroni is much smoother. Dude, your taste buds are off.

@Anonymous #1... Amen to that. Pardon the English, but this ain't nowhere near Heineken.

If you're an elitist perhaps you should just stick with microbrews. If you want a beer, give it a try.

Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video
to make your point. You obviously know what youre talking about, why throw away your intelligence on just
posting videos to your site when you could be giving us something informative to read?

Fantastic blog! Do you have any hints for aspiring writers?
I'm hoping to start my own site soon but I'm a little lost on everything.

Would you recommend starting with a free platform
like Wordpress or go for a paid option? There are so many choices out there that I'm totally overwhelmed .. Any ideas? Thanks a lot!

Hi great website! Does running a blog similar to this
require a great deal of work? I have virtually no knowledge of programming however
I had been hoping to start my own blog soon. Anyways, if you have any recommendations or tips for new blog owners please share.
I understand this is off topic however I simply had to ask.

Thanks a lot!
