MT. PLEASANT, SC (October 17, 2011) – Birra Moretti is a beer with a history and a taste that is anything but ordinary, one that is a perfect match for delicious Italian food and for time shared with friends. This fall the brand builds upon its food-friendly and sociable quality with the launch of the consumer contest, Moretti Loves Pizza. Partnering with East Village Radio (EVR), a leading national online music radio station based in New York City, and a variety of Italian gourmet pizza restaurants across the nation, Moretti Loves Pizza creates a “More Italian” experience for Americans seeking an attainable, affordable and approachable authentic Italian gastronomic experience.

Moretti Loves Pizza encourages customers of participating Italian gourmet pizza restaurants in New York City, New Jersey, Boston, Chicago and South Florida to order a Birra Moretti while dining with friends and family in their local pizzeria to experience the most authentic Italian experience when it comes to the foremost food pairing, pizza and beer. Birra Moretti serves as the exclusive beer sponsor of EVR, which will promote the campaign and drive traffic to the program’s social media pages and website, as well as into the participating gourmet pizzerias.

Consumers can enter the contest by filling out a campaign coaster at their local participating pizzeria from Monday, Oct. 17, 2011 through Sunday, Nov. 6, 2011.. Each customer will receive the coaster and a short explanation of the Moretti Loves Pizza campaign at the beginning of their visit. Customers have the chance to win a host of giveaways including the ultimate prize of a trip for two to Naples, Italy - the home of Margherita pizza - that includes a pizza-making class, as well as other prizes including free pizza for 1 year sponsored by Birra Moretti, tickets for the invitation-only finale party held at Eataly and curated by EVR, and a variety of Birra Moretti consumer giveaways.

Consumers that are not located in the selected markets or cannot make it to a participating pizzeria can still enter the contest by posting their favorite gourmet pizza photo paired with a Birra Moretti to the wall of the Birra Moretti Facebook fan page. Contestants that post to the Facebook page will be eligible for the drawing for the ultimate prize of a trip for two to Naples, Italy and additional Birra Moretti consumer giveaways.

At random, Birra Moretti will select a number of lucky winners, who will be notified by email by Tuesday, Nov. 15, 2011. For a list of participating pizzerias, a link to the Birra Moretti Facebook page and additional information on the contest, visit www.morettilovespizza.com.
