I'm not from Spain and always saw Estrella as "the spanish beer". Really surprised it isn't here. What is Mahou?

The good Estrella, Estrella Galicia, or the shit Estrella, Estrella Dam?

[–] MicrowavedTea@infosec.pub 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I want to say Estrella Galicia but I've probably seen Estrella Damm in more places. I think I've had both outside of Spain

[–] h3rm17@sh.itjust.works 3 points 8 months ago

Estrella Galicia tastes way better (subjective, lol), and has been increadingly gaining popularity all over Spain for the past 6/7 years (it was known before, but now it is more commonplace).

Also, Mahou is quite common in Madrid. A bit of a shit beer, but better than Damm and, for example, Cruzcampo.

Still, they put anlot of money into marketing, festivals and stuff like that, so that might have to do with it (most beers do, though)

I felt the same way but that may just be because I was in Barcelona.
