Producer Background
Estrella Damm Brewery, officially known as S.A. Damm, has been an integral part of Spain’s brewing heritage for nearly 150 years. Founded in Barcelona in 1876 by Alsatian brewers August Kuentzmann Damm and Joseph Damm, the brewery set out to craft beer that suited the Mediterranean climate—lighter, more refreshing, and ideal for food pairing. Their flagship, Estrella Damm Lager, delivers exactly that: a balanced pale lager brewed with malted barley, rice, and hops, without any additives or preservatives.
The brewery’s commitment to quality and sustainability is evident in its use of 100% natural ingredients and a production process that includes energy efficiency and eco-packaging innovation. Over the years, Estrella Damm has expanded its range while remaining true to its roots, with beers like Daura (a gluten-free lager) and Inedit (developed with chefs from El Bulli) demonstrating the brand’s versatility and sophistication.
While Estrella Damm operates on a much larger scale than typical craft producers, its dedication to traditional brewing principles and local identity has earned it a place in our carefully curated selection. It offers a distinct contrast to the robust richness of Belgian Beer and the precision of German Beer, making it a refreshing and essential part of any balanced craft beer collection.
