Estrella Damm is a Spanish Catalan pilsener. It has been brewed in Barcelona since 1876 and is the flagship beer of S.A. Damm, a prominent Barcelona brewery. "Estrella" means "Star" in both Spanish and Catalan.

Estrella Damm is available in the UK in a 4.6% version. It is also available in Australia where it is imported by the Coles Liquor Group. Coles has an exclusive arrangement with the Damm brewery for Estrella's distribution in Australia. Coles sells it through their 1st Choice, Liquorland and Vintage Cellars stores. Estrella Damm is available in New Zealand through Federal Geo Ltd. who has exclusive rights to distribute and market the brand in New Zealand.[1]

During the heyday of baseball in Spain in the 1950s and 1960s, S.A. Damm sponsored a local baseball team, Picadero Damm. In 2007 Estrella Damm was one of the major sponsors of Emirates Team New Zealand, a challenger for the America's Cup who won the Louis Vuitton Cup.

Estrella Damm is not to be confused with another Spanish lager called Estrella Galicia.
