If you follow our blog, you know that we love beer . Beer experiences always appear among our recommendations, whether it's enjoying the atmosphere of a beer garden in Prague , tasting beers inside an old brewery in Bruges , enjoying a beer in one of the ruin bars in Budapest. and we could continue the list until tomorrow.

In addition, there are many cities in Europe where you can visit a beer museum , the best known that come to mind are the Guinness Museum in Dublin or the Heineken Experience in Amsterdam. Since 2019 in Spain you will also find a beer museum located in the Estrella Galicia factory itself , in A Coruña. The Estrella Galicia Museum (for friends simply MEGA) is the first beer museum in the country that has quickly become one of the essential places to visit in A Coruña.

Beyond curiosity about how the most famous museum and brewery in Galicia came to be , we were attracted to this museum because of the relationship we have with this beer. For a few years we have lived in Cubelles, a coastal town in the province of Barcelona, ​​and after living for more than a decade in the Catalan Local and Suburban Passenger Transport Email Lists capital where we were used to finding Catalan beers in the bars, here all the bars we frequent on the beach serve Galicia Star. So visiting MEGA also meant knowing all the details about our “every day” beer.

MEGA, an experience not only for beer lovers
After visiting the Estrella Galicia Museum , without a doubt we recommend it even if you are not a "fan" of beer like us. You will be able to learn the history , the secrets of the production of one of the oldest drinks in the world and you will be able to immerse yourself in the history of a Spanish family business that achieved worldwide success . MEGA offers a fun and interactive experience for all the senses. At the entrance to the museum they give you a bracelet that allows you to activate different screens and games to complete the guided tour, something we have not seen yet in any other museum.

Our visit to the Estrella Galicia Museum
The museum has eight sectors . The visit begins with a virtual “immersion” in a glass of cane that was going to promise us a fun experience.

History of beer and Estrella Galicia
The first section of the museum is dedicated to history . In the first room we find an infographic about the more than 10,000 years of history that beer has . The infographic shows how beer has been present in human life practically since the beginning of cereal cultivation . We were also able to observe some of the important dates in the development of beer brewing. We saw how we got from the beers brewed in medieval abbeys to the true laboratories found today in modern factories. Do you know what the star that appears in the logos of various brands means? In MEGA you will discover it.

The second room of the museum is dedicated to the history of Estrella Galicia and we saw how a family business , founded in 1906 by José María Rivera Corral , has become one of the most beloved beers in Spain and a brand known in many places around the world. . We learned about the history of the Rivera family from humble beginnings when the Cuatro Caminos beer and ice factory was established near the port (today the Estrella Galicia Brewery is located here) to the present. Without a doubt one of the secrets of the brand is the name Rivera and the dedication of the members of the different generations to the success of the company.
