Oh man do I have a treat for you today. The Brainchild of Mr. Ferran Adria,
I give you Estrella Damm Inedit.
Weighing in at a low 4.8 ABV this beer was specially designed to be paired with food. It was designed like a wine and that may be one of the reasons it drinks a bit like Champagne.
It pours a beautiful straw gold with a good pale white head which fades quickly and releases lovely citrus and vanilla notes.
This beer is supremely drinkable; it only comes in a 750ml but you won't want to share it.
The mouthfeel is silky with strong notes of orange peel and honey with the slightest bitterness and subtle spices.
The standard beer characteristics of malt and hop bitterness are totally gone and have been replaced with the yeast and bread quality of good Champagne. It's a real trip at first but is awesome with food.
It's not cheap but good wine/beer isn't, right?
