Serving Tips from Our Cellar
Peroni is best enjoyed well‑chilled. Ideally served at a temperature of 4–6°C. Store it in the fridge for a few hours before serving. For the perfect pour, use a chilled glass and pour slowly to achieve a fine, creamy head. If you’re ordering delivery in Dubai, we recommend chilling it as soon as it arrives for the perfect drinking experience.
The Story Behind Peroni
The story of Peroni begins in 1846. Francesco Peroni founded the brewery in Vigevano, Italy. His vision was to create a beer that would embody the spirit of his homeland — elegant, refined, and full of life. The brewery quickly gained a reputation for quality.
In 1859, Peroni was awarded the prestigious gold medal at the Palermo Exposition. In the 1880s, the brewery moved to its current home in Rome. This cemented its place at the heart of Italian culture. Over the decades, Peroni has become synonymous with Italian style and sophistication. It’s a favourite among celebrities, artists, and discerning beer lovers worldwide.
In 1998, Peroni was acquired by SABMiller and later became part of the Asahi Group in 2016. Despite these changes, Peroni has remained true to its roots. It continues to brew its iconic lager using the same dedication to quality and craftsmanship that defined it from the very beginning. Discover more on the official Peroni website.
