Estrella Damm Daura

Daura is a beer brand produced by Damm in Barcelona, Spain. The brand launched in 2006 as a beer developed for people with coeliac disease. Damm says its brewers worked with the Gluten Unit of Spain’s CSIC (Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas) to develop a beer intended to be suitable for people with coeliac disease while retaining the taste of beer. The official brand page describes Daura as a gluten-free beer made with barley malt, its principal ingredient, and presents it as having the flavour of a conventional beer. The Spanish-language encyclopedia entry classifies it as a Pilsen-style lager and reports an alcohol content of 5.4% and a gluten level below 3 ppm, measured using the competitive ELISA R5 method. These product specifications are reported by that source and are not presented in the supplied official-site excerpt. Daura’s positioning centres on gluten-free beer and beer-like flavour. Damm’s site describes it as an internationally award-winning brand and lists competition recognition across multiple countries and years. The supplied Spanish-language entry specifically records awards in London in 2008 and 2009, as well as awards in 2011 in London and Chicago. The available evidence does not establish the brand’s current sales footprint, ownership beyond its production by Damm, or individual executives.

Daura was launched by Damm in 2006 as a beer intended for people with coeliac disease. According to Damm’s official page, the company’s master brewers worked with the Gluten Unit of CSIC, Spain’s public research organisation, in developing a beer that could be suitable for people with coeliac disease while retaining the flavour of beer. Damm describes barley malt as Daura’s principal ingredient and characterises the result as tasting like a conventional beer. The Spanish-language encyclopedia entry identifies Daura as a Pilsen-style lager produced by Damm in Barcelona. It reports that the manufacturing process breaks down the gluten chain, and gives product specifications of 5.4% alcohol by volume and less than 3 ppm gluten, measured using the competitive ELISA R5 method. Those technical details are attributed to that entry; the supplied official-site excerpt does not independently provide them. Awards became a prominent part of the brand’s public presentation. The Spanish-language entry records Daura receiving the World Beer Awards’ Best Gluten-Free Beer award in London in 2008 and 2009. It also lists a gold medal at the World Beer Championships in Chicago, a gold medal at the International Beer Challenge in London, and another World Beer Awards recognition in London in 2011. Damm’s official page presents the brand as internationally award-winning and displays a longer sequence of competition locations and years, extending from 2008 through 2023. The supplied material does not identify the names or categories of every award in that longer list. Daura’s documented brand history in the available sources is therefore focused on its 2006 launch, its development with specialist scientific collaboration, and its recognition in beer competitions. The evidence supplied does not establish further corporate transactions, leadership changes, or market expansions.
