Moretti's premium stronger lager — 'Baffo d'Oro' translates as 'Golden Moustache', a direct reference to the iconic Moretti mascot. A step above L'Autentica at 6.7% ABV with a slightly fuller malt character and a warming finish. Baffo d'Oro is positioned as the premium occasion lager within the Moretti range: when the standard pint isn't quite strong enough.
