From the record
Summary
The macro lager of Barcelona. Independent from InBev/Heineken, but a massive domestic conglomerate. Not an acquisition: this is the founding brewery of the group that bears its name, so there is no purchase date to record.
A summary written during research. The sourced facts are in the sections below.
Tally’s Take
Barcelona's lager, and a reminder that independent from AB InBev and Heineken is not the same as small. Damm is a conglomerate in its own right.
