Estrella Galicia: Tradition, Taste, and the Perfect Pour

We’re excited to introduce a new star to the taps at the VSC – Estrella Galicia, a celebrated Spanish beer with over a century of brewing heritage.

Brewed by the family-owned Hijos de Rivera brewery since 1906 in the coastal city of A Coruña, this golden lager is as rich in tradition as it is in taste. The iconic Brewmaster’s Star featured on its label is more than just a symbol – it’s a nod to time-honoured European brewing craftsmanship.

Estrella Galicia is crafted using a careful blend of specially selected malts and bitter hops, with a fermentation and maturation process lasting over 20 days. The result? A bright, crisp beer with a clean taste and a distinctive hoppy bite – perfect for relaxing at the Club.

To make sure you enjoy this beer exactly as intended, the VSC team received training this week from Estrella Galicia representatives. They shared the art and importance of the perfect Estrella pour – and naturally, the team enjoyed a few well-earned samples in the process!

✨ Tasting Notes:

• Appearance: Brilliant golden hue
• Flavour: Clean and balanced with a refreshing hoppy finish

Whether you’re a beer connoisseur or simply curious to try something new, Estrella Galicia is a must-try. Next time you’re at the VSC, raise a glass to this Spanish classic – your tastebuds will thank you!
