I hope you enjoyed it. I can't say enough good things about the Italian craft beer scene — it's not Denmark, but it is growing at an amazing rate, and their enthusiasm for good beer is infectious.

I've put up a few posts on Beer Culture with more on Italy:

The best thing about it: it's Italy, meaning that beyond the great beers, the people are wonderful and the food is amazing. If you get a chance, just go.
