Estrella Damm Inedit was created in 2008 by Damm’s brewmasters working with three-Michelin-star chef Ferran Adria and the sommelier team from his restaurant elBulli. The goal was a beer built specifically to accompany fine food the way a good wine would, blending a traditional barley malt beer with a spiced wheat beer in one bottle.

How It Tastes
Inedit pours a hazy pale gold with a persistent white head. The wheat-beer half brings coriander and orange peel spice, while the barley malt half adds body and a touch of licorice root in the background, a combination most reviewers describe as sitting between a Belgian witbier and a blonde ale. It is noticeably more food-focused than a typical session lager, built to sit alongside a full meal rather than be drunk on its own.
A different beer, made with two types of beer in one, designed to accompany food like a wine would.
- Genuinely distinctive recipe, not just another pale lager
- Built specifically to pair with food
- Real chef-and-sommelier pedigree behind the recipe
- 750ml bottle format costs more than a standard six-pack
- The coriander-and-spice profile will not suit everyone looking for a straightforward lager
