What is Moretti Zero?
Birra Moretti Zero is the alcohol-free version of Birra Moretti, the lager Luigi Moretti started making at his “beer and ice factory” in Udine, in north-east Italy, in 1859. Heineken has owned Birra Moretti since 1996, after spells under Canada’s Labatt and Belgium’s Interbrew, and brewing left Udine in 1992. Heineken launched it in the UK in 2019, with shops due to stock it from March.
Birra Moretti calls it “perfectly balanced with fresh, hoppy and citrus notes”. The UK label lists carbonated water, malted barley, natural flavouring and hop extract, and gives 19 kcal and 2.4g of sugar per 100ml. Birra Moretti declares less than 0.05% ABV, within the UK’s guideline for calling a drink alcohol-free, but doesn’t say how it takes the alcohol out.
The Zero sold in the UK is brewed in the Netherlands, its label says, while the full-strength Moretti sold here is brewed in the UK. It’s easy to find: Tesco, Ocado and Morrisons had it when we checked, and so did Dry Drinker and Wise Bartender.
