“In Barcelona, friends and family love to get together for tapas and Estrella Damm” commented Floris van Neerrijnen, Brand Specialist of Estrella Damm. “A traditional staple for social gatherings in Barcelona, tapas are small plates that are meant to be shared by all. Tapas are more than just a meal; they are a way of life.”

Estrella Damm beer is the market leader in Barcelona, home to Ferran Adrià. Chef Adrià has been collaborating with the brewery since 2008, particularly in the creation of Inedit, a malt and wheat beer brewed with spices, specifically crafted to pair with food. Chef Adrià expanded his role in 2013 as the gastronomic ambassador for the brewery’s flagship brand, Estrella Damm.

“Southern Wine and Spirits of Nevada is proud to welcome Chef Ferran Adrià, a gastronomic legend and global spokesperson for Estrella Damm, to Las Vegas. We look forward to sharing the Chef’s insights, and a delicious Estrella Damm draft, with our customers” said Allan O’Neil, Senior Vice President – Beer, Southern Wine & Spirits of Nevada.

“Las Vegas is a culinary mecca when it comes to food. It only made sense to host this special event amongst those that continue to pave the way for the Las Vegas Food & Beverage industry” said van Neerrijnen.

Ferran Adrià was the co-owner and chef of elBulli from 1984 until its closure as a restaurant in 2011. Chef Adrià has a long history of recognition, including being listed on TIME Magazine’s “World’s Top 100 Influential People” and Restaurant Magazine’s 2010 “Chef of the Decade”.

elBulli itself was awarded “World’s Best Restaurant” five times by Restaurant Magazine between 2004 and 2010. The elBulli team created 1,846 dishes during their tenure, which has inspired chefs from all over the world to go beyond the norm and push boundaries in the kitchen.

The restaurant, once receiving 2 million reservation requests each summer it was open, closed in 2011 in order to become a center for research and innovation. The center will reopen in the future as elBullifoundation, dubbed “Bullipedia” by Ferran Adrià, to young, aspiring, culinary professionals.
