75cl Bottle
ESTRELLA DAMM, INEDIT, barley, malt and wheat, Spain.  11.95

Produced by: Ferran Adrià and El Bulli’s Team.

The first beer specifically created to accompany food. It is born from the conviction that a beer that could be paired with the utmost respect to the best cuisine was necessary. That is its aim and its virtue, and that is what makes Inedit different, special and unique. High intensity and aromatic complexity. Slightly cloudy, fruity and floral to the nose, sweet spices reminiscences. Creamy, fresh texture, soft volume and delicate carbonic. Long aftertaste and pleasant memory. Served in a Riedel Wine Glass and kept in a wine cooler.
