I'm in Rome, so I'll do like the Romans and drink this beer. Poured from a brown 25.3 oz. bottle. Has a copper color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is fruity, some yeast. Taste is of malts, alcohol, some fruitiness. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall is a solid beer.

Forget the previous Gran Cru: the Moretti Gran Cru 2016 is complete new beer, brewed in Italy and not, as before by Affligem in Belgium, and this alone, is not, in any way, a good commercial policy. That said there is nothing 'gran' (great) in this beer. It has a nice amber color and a medium persistent foam. Smell is reminiscent of a standard supermarket lager: simple and without scent of fruit or spice. Maybe just a hint of yeast. Taste: no complexity . You can drink it has any italian 'doppio malto' ( strong beer). It's a decent beer with a well hidden 6.8 alcohol. I could buy it again, conscious of what I can expect,m.

Grabbed one this evening as shown. I really liked lacqueredmouse's review on this. I knew I liked this beer a lot, and after reading all of your reviews (BA contributors) I see why. It does have some Belgian characteristics. Anyhow, I'm stationed in Sicily, and drink this beer often as it is fresh and one the very best Italy has to offer. Not sure how it fares after it's trip to the States...
