The Estrella Damm Old Brewery brings you the opportunity to discover how everything started more than 140 years ago. Through our tour, you will see the different spaces like the emblematic Kettle Room, the Power Generator Room or the Historical Archive; among others, that will introduce you on how the Damm beers were produced.
The tour ends with an organoleptic tasting of different beers paired with unique creations so you can enjoy the specialties to the fullest.
The building that has housed the old brewery for more than 140 years is well-known in the city as the headquarters of the SA Damm brewery. The Antiga Fàbrica production site has always been closely linked to the city. In the rooms you can discover the history of the brewery and the origins of the current Estrella Damm.
The history of Estrella Damm Brewery began over 140 years ago when August Kuentzmann Damm, a young brewer from Alsace, fled the Franco-Prussian War with his wife Melanie. Settling in Barcelona, they pursued their dream of brewing beer adapted to the Mediterranean climate. In 1876, they opened their brewery, crafting a lighter, refreshing lager suited to the region's warmth. Since then, Estrella Damm has upheld its original 1876 recipe, using only barley malt, rice, and hops, with no additives or preservatives. Rooted in German brewing traditions, Estrella Damm remains a symbol of quality and craftsmanship, embodying the essence of Mediterranean brewing.
