Stella Artois is a Belgian pilsner from Leuven, where the brewing tradition behind the brand dates back to 1366. First launched as a Christmas beer in 1926, it is brewed with malted barley, maize and Saaz hops. It pours a clear gold with a white head and offers a well-balanced flavour of light malt sweetness, mild bitterness and a crisp, clean finish. Traditionally served in its own chalice glass with a neat, skimmed head.
