HISTORY

It was 140 years ago when the young August K.
Damm and Melanie emigrated from their native
Alsace escaping the Franco-Prussian war

Their journey took them to the Mediterranean with
the dream to dedicate themselves to what they
knew best: brewing beer

In 1876 they established their own brewery after
having crafted a distinctive and evolved beer, more
suitable for warmer climates and different than
existing central European beers: The Mediterranean
Lager Beer

Estrella Damm is still brewed using the original 1876
recipe with Mediterranean ingredients: barley malt,
rice and hops. In order to do so we work together
with Mediterranean farmers supplying them with
the selected pure seed varieties used to harvest the
beer’s ingredients. And we malt in our own maltery:
La Moravia

Estrella Damm’s yeast is unique and stored under
high security measures. It has a minimum of 3
weeks fermentation and lagering process. And
ultimately, the brown bottle’s ultraviolet sun
radiation protection together with an appropriate
cold storage allows for enjoying a beer

TASTING NOTES

Gold coloured with hints of amber and tones of pale
green throughout. It appears clean and crisp in the
glass, forms a cream coloured head and is dense
with a lingering aftertaste. The first nose is creamy
and dominated by aromas of year against a
background of fresh spices enveloped in subtle
roast flavours. Malted barley aromas dominate in
the mouth. It has a balanced character lightly
dominated by a bitter taste. A lively sensation of
bitterness brings a long and refreshing finish.
