Best Feature: dry short finish
Peroni is available at BC Liquor Stores, but our can came directly from Italy. The version we tried was 4.7% alcohol and in a blue and red can. The aroma was slightly sweet and the pour released a slight hop smell. Peroni is very light and the yellow beer produced only a minimal amount of head. The initial taste was very light with a smooth dry finish. Overall, Peroni is easy to drink but our beer was a little old and aged. At the liquor store, Peroni is available in 330 bottles for $11.95. A little steep, but a good alternative to other import lagers.
Beer Fact: Peroni is a partner brand with Miller and Pilsner Urquell. |

Best Feature: light mouthfeel
We were lucky enough to receive this beer directly from Europe via a well traveled soccer fan (Arietha) at this year's World Cup. Peroni is an Italian lager with 4.7% alcohol content which we got in a can. When we poured this lager is was a clear yellow colour with a tight white head which vanished quickly. The aroma was mildly hoppy. I found the mouthfeel to be nice and light with a very light amount of carbonation. Overall this was a pleasant beer but it was a bit flat possibly from the travel from Europe .
Interesting Fact: The Peroni brewery has been in existence since 1846 with four beers under its umbrella
