Saxons drinking Peroni ??

[Oggwyn Trench]

I suppose they could argue that when the Saxons invaded Britain it was still very Roman influenced , hence the Italian beer , for more accuracy maybe a traditional northern German beer like a Bock originaly from the Einbeck near the old Saxon cities of Hanover and Brunswick would suffice , 6%+ beer in this heat , bad head here we come

Given the price , over £5 a pint in my local, I guess this is down to "rip off" more than authenticity

Never tried it, maybe it is nectar from God's etc, but was told by a drinker it was sort of Italian Wife beater
