The Trofeo Birra Moretti (Birra Moretti Trophy) was an annual football friendly tournament that had been organised and sponsored by Birra Moretti from 1997 to 2008.{{cite web|url=http://www.cantieredicomunicazione.com/birra-moretti/birramoretti-agg-dicembre2010/28%2007%2010%20Smentita%20Trofeo%20Birra%20Moretti%202010.pdf |title=Archived copy |accessdate=2011-01-24 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110708114439/http://www.cantieredicomunicazione.com/birra-moretti/birramoretti-agg-dicembre2010/28%2007%2010%20Smentita%20Trofeo%20Birra%20Moretti%202010.pdf |archive-date=2011-07-08 }} The teams played three round-robin matches lasting 45-minutes each.

After 2008, the event has not taken place anymore. Officially, Heineken Italia announced its intention to suspend it for only one year in 2009, coinciding with a change of promotional strategies at the 150th anniversary of Beer Moretti S.p.A., but was not resumed even in the following years.
Formula
The tournament was played in 3 matches, each of 45 '(plus any recovery): the loser of the first match challenged the third team, later engaged against the winner of the opening match. In most of the editions, the matches were divided into 2 halves (from 22'30 "each) to give kickoff to each formation: the interval was also useful to the organizers for promotional and advertising purposes. If after 45 'the match was tied, there was a shoot-out (penalty in motion) with 3 executions per team and possible continuation to the bitter end. Penalty shots. The score was thus assigned :
- 3 points for victory in the 45 '
- 2 points for winning on penalties
- 1 point for losing on penalties
- no points for the defeat in the 45 '
For tie situations in the standings, the goal difference first and the detached standings were considered first. Only the goals of the 45 minutes were counted in the goal difference.
