Description
Font Salem is a Spanish company that markets its products both in Spain and in neighboring Portugal. Their strength is making beer, soft drinks and water for third parties. Their industry experience is over 25 years, as they have earned the trust of the major companies they work with (Mercadona, El Corte Inglés, Lidl, Eroski etc.). Grupo Damm acquired the company in several steps since 1999.
The company has three plants, two in Valencia and one in Portugal. The one in El Puig de Santa María, in Valencia, is dedicated to brewing beer, the second, in Salem, Valencia, makes soft drinks. The Santarém factory in Portugal produces both beer and soft drinks.

33cl can from Megasuper in Punteranus (Costa Rica); drank in California on 7th April 2025. Pale golden body, clean and bright, wispy white head. Cheap supermarket lager with a semi sweet taste, nothing wrong with it, but it's fairly odourless and tasteless.

Very cheap beer from the supermarket, just €1 for 1 l. But it comes at a cost: golden ultra-filtered pour with a sticky, rapidly vanishing foam (rather than head), aromas of wet cardboard, esters and rotten banana, and a fizzy, watery mouthfeel that leads to more cardboard. Hellish bad.
