AI Researched

Estrella Damm is an iconic Mediterranean Pilsner-style lager brewed in Barcelona, Spain, and is the flagship beer of S.A. Damm — the oldest beer brand in Catalonia. Brewed to the original 1876 recipe using only 100% natural ingredients (barley malt, rice, and hops), it is widely known as 'The Beer of Barcelona' and has earned three Gold Medals at the World Beer Championships.

S.A. Damm

S.A. Damm is a prominent Barcelona-based brewery founded in 1876 by Alsatian August Küntzmann Damm, who fled to Spain following the Franco-Prussian War. It is one of the most historic and celebrated breweries in Spain, with its own malthouse allowing full control over the brewing process.

Blend

Barley malt, rice, and hops — 100% natural ingredients, no additives or preservatives

Tasting Profile

Golden in colour with tones of amber, bright and sparkling with a creamy long-lasting head. On the palate it delivers notes of cereals from the malt, a fresh sensation from the rice, and a clean, moderate bitter finish.

Region

Barcelona, the capital of Catalonia in northeastern Spain, has a rich brewing heritage shaped by its Mediterranean climate and culture. The region's proximity to quality agricultural ingredients has long supported a tradition of lighter, refreshing lager-style beers distinct from Central European styles.
