What we have not confirmed

Aldi lists Rossini, but we could not read the listing, so we have not confirmed its strength, where it is brewed or who brews it. A photo of the small print on a bottle would settle it.

If you have a can or bottle to hand, the producer's name and address in the small print would settle it.

We have not been able to establish where the UK supply of Rossini Gran Riserva Birra is brewed. It is sold as a beer from Italy. What is known and what is still open is set out in the verification box above. A photo of the small print on a current can or bottle would settle it.
