I saw on this blog that an Estrella beer is on sale this week at Publix. Maybe they can order that flavor you like. Some Publix managers are pretty good about ordering a specific product for you.

And I also saw this place that says they have over 500 beers and they do say they have some Estrella beers. They might be able to get it as well. Good luck

At DRB they have Estrella Damm and a few other brews, but not Voll Damm.
At Zeke's they have Estrella Damm.
Estrella Damm is 5,5, but Voll Damm is 7,2...



Voll-Damm: starkbier, ALCOHOL CONTENT 7,2º.

Does Estrella make Voll Damm? If they do, maybe the places that offer the other varieties of their beer can order the Voll Damm variety.

Voll Damm is an industrial Märzenbier - Mr Damm was actually French but from Alsace, the part most often annexed by Germany. They used to use old brewing techniques in their old factory but now use short-cut industrial processes that compromise their flavor, in their big factory by the airport to produce an OK beer that is nothing special and mainly for internal consumption. Spain is hardly a great beer country. Your country produces some very fine beers, many of which are vastly superior in taste to Voll Damm. The fact that this beer doesn't export to countries with a decent beer culture should be an indication to you that no-one cares for this sub-standard brew. I guess it is more a psychological reason that you want this - to remind you of the good times in BCN, but honestly, if you drink it outside of Barcelona, I think you'll be sorely disappointed.

Damm is the Catalan beer for excellence, August Damm was from Alsace but founded his brewery in Barcelona 140 years ago. Voll Damm has been brewed at their brewery at the Industrial Park of Prat del Llobregat during the last 40 years that I rememeber. They have been using the same process since 1958. Before, they only produced Voll Damm during a couple of months.

American beer is no match for Spanish beer, and Spain is a beer country (and a wine country too). We favour very cold Pilsen here, not those heavy brews favoured in Northern Europe.

The best beers in Spain are Damm Estrella Dorada in Barcelona and Mahou in Madrid.

You can find Mahou in Miami, Mahou draught beer is sensational.

Here you can find "fresh" brews, microbrews and beer bars with hundreds of beers, but there's nothing like a frozen draught Pilsen like Estrella or Mahou.

I don't like Voll Damm, a tasty beer (doble malta) but too strong.

What everybody drinks in Miami is Heineken, Presidente and Bud Light. Nobody cares about the other brands.
