El Bulli's Estrella Damm Inedit

What do you get when you cook at the best restaurant in the world, have one of the most esteemed wine cellars in existance, and you know wine doesn't pair with asparagus? Simple, make your own beer that does.

From gastronomic guesswork

Finally available in Denver, Estrella Damm Inedit is a very refined craft beer made in Barcelona, Spain in cooperation with the Sommeliers of El Bulli and the indefatigable master chef himself, Ferran Adria. The little book attached to the bottle purports the flavor profile includes coriander, orange peel in a slightly wheat-y format. Never tasted a beer like it, serve in a wine glass at 55F.

Oh, and it does pair very well with asparagus. Available in the bomber room at Lucas Liquors near Park Meadows Mall, South of Denver - haven't found it anywhere else, so big Kudos to the guys at Lucas for making this very rare beer available in Denver.
