Damm S. A. "A.K. Damm"
33 cl brown glass bottle coded "06/23 L220508". Sampled on 23 November 2022
€2,20 @ MAS Xarcuteries Sama S.L., Barcelona, ES

Look: Clear deep golden in color beneath a thumb's width of densely foamy white. Better than average head retention and lacing.
Smell: Moderate aroma of bready malt backed by noble hops.
Taste: The taste follows the aroma with a little bit more hop character threaded through. Moderate to minor bitterness (~ 12 IBUs?) yet still balanced and dry in the finish.
Feel: Medium bodied and crisp.
Overall: Quite a nice lager that's highly refined and polished, and subtly different from most mass market beers. Possibly Damm's best.

Bought at a supermarket in Algorta (Spain).

-Looks pale yellow colour. Foam head disappears quickly.
-Good smell.
-Pilsener taste. Very wooden.
-Leaves not much of an after taste.

Not Bad. I guess better than the usual Estrella Damm.

Cerveza con una pequeña cabeza blanca, de cuerpo ligero y baja carbonatación. Aroma a granos, pan y un poco de caramelo. En boca se siente la malta, y la miel, que le deja una sensación dulce en su final.

Purchased at grocery in Condado de Murcia, spain. Fizzy carbonation with clove and spicey finish. Lingering hops aftertaste. Solid representation of the style. Would buy again.

Barcelona brewed...drinking in Madrid.

Bubbly, looks refreshing with good head.

Aroma like cloves.

Barcelona has some unique and impressive beers, definitely.

This one has a nice bottle, though taste is a bit clovey, maybe with some nutmeg also. Still, it is unique and perfectly ok, just not a particularly pleasant flavor that makes me thirsty for more. However, it is a well-made beer with good feel and look.

From Hipercor. Watching Breaking Bad 2x02. In Ikea's pilsen glass. A stinky beverage with a nasty and soft taste. Don't repeat. Damm has many other better offerings.

Nice lager with clean and fresh flavour. Very elegant bottle for collection. Refreshing and kind of hoppy, bitternes is very nice and well balanced with the malt.
