Re: Peroni
I think this will be a very hard K&K clone, it is much in the style of Budweiser and Corona and all those other colourless tasteless beers (IMHO) that are very hard to make without a full mash. I did have a bit of a search for you, but not much english stuff popped up 
Re: Peroni
I dont mind a peroni either. As with all cuisines i tend to drink the beer that comes form the coutnry of the food - the beers have evolved with the food.
Anyway. i agree with Kev here, the subtle differences between all the euro lagers (including becks, heinekne, carlsberg etc) is going to be hard to replicate with a kit. I think you can make good lagers with kits, a good yeast, low ferment temp etc but the differences in a lot of these beers is going to be down to the malt anbd how they mash it.
That aside, what hops do you think peroni have in them? I think it may be saaz but its very very sublte, even more so than the classic pilsner urquell...
Not much help, i reckon you can make a much better beer than these using kits as i said. Hard to get that dry, crisp lager flavour froma kit that IMHO will leave too much sweetness behind to balance the subtle hop flavour.

Re: Peroni
Had both a Peroni and Moretti in my Christmas/New Year stash. Each to their own taste of course, but this is why if I was going for an Italian lager I would choose the Moretti. More golden in colour and a beautiful malty taste. Found the Peroni quite dissapointing and tasteless in comparison. Have been able to get 2 different sorts of Moretti at Dan Murphy's over the past year or so.it is much in the style of Budweiser and Corona and all those other colourless tasteless beers (IMHO)
