Birra Moretti alla Siciliana

The Birra Moretti alla Siciliana is a regional lager brewed with Zagara, the flower found in citrus trees. This ingredient gives this beer a distinctive floral taste, which in our opinion makes it an excellent refresher especially for the summer. We tasted it over a very delicious brisket by EAT and it was truly a match made in heaven.

About Birra Moretti (TheHeinekenCompany.com)

Luigi Moretti’s “beer and ice factory” was founded more than a century ago in Udine, Italy in the Friuli region during the unification of Italy. One day, in 1942, the nephew of Luigi Moretti, the founder of the brewery, saw a pleasant-looking man sitting at a table in the “Trattoria Boschetti” near Udine. There was something unique in that man. He embodied the real values of his beer: authenticity, tradition, genuineness. Eventually Mr. Moretti went up to him and asked if he could take a picture of him. When the man was asked what he wanted in return, the only thing he asked for was another Moretti beer. Since that day the image of that man is on every single Moretti label, reminding us where we come from and who we brew our beer for.

Today Birra Moretti is exported to over 50 markets including the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, Romania, the United States, Canada and Japan, and has won many international awards on the way. In 2006 Birra Moretti was the only Italian brand to be awarded both gold and silver medals at the World Beer Cup, the most important international competition in the industry. Birra Moretti also won five medals at the Australian International Beer Awards, confirming its status as a globally loved, world class beer.
