Fin (2357), Merton, Oxfordshire, England Mar 18, 2008 Bottle from the Dodgi’ Deli, at just 39p it had to be done. Had this 17-03-08 Golden in colour with high carbonation and with white bubbly head. Unusual taste at first with strange garden refuse aroma and seeping into the mouth, I know that sounds bizzare but that was my first thought, that warm wet decaying grassiness. This taste soon disappeared and it mellowed to be a bit cardboardy and bland, honey on nose after a while, its ok. Mungo (2474), Southampton, Hampshire, England Apr 19, 2007 Bottle (from Bottles of Botley). Reasonably full tasty malt. Could do with more hop to rouind it off. Suprisingly good for a cheap lager even if it does finish a little sweet and unrefined. berkshire_john (1106), Bracknell, Berkshire, England Mar 27, 2007 33cl bottle from Somerfields. Straw coloured with a touch of white head; strong grassy smell; sweet with biscuit flavours; a hint of bitterness on the finish.A fairly bland Italian style lager.
By the way, Forza Azzurri isn’t just any Italian football (soccer) team, it’s a nickname for the national team. hopscotch (4588), Vero Beach, Florida, USA Feb 25, 2007 Bottle... Clear yellow lager with a small, creamy, white head. Skunky, honey-drenched biscuit aroma. The flavor is sweet and thin with absolutely no hop kick whatsoever. Light to barely medium bodied with an oily mouthfeel and prickly carbonation. Finishes honey-sweet. Drew1966 (4), USA does not count Dec 30, 2006 Forza Azzurri pours a very light copper color with a thin white head from a green 33 cl bottle. The aroma is sweet malt. Taste is all sweet malt too, no discernable hops to be found. Reminds me a lot of Eastern European lagers.
