I’ve always considered Stella to be a wholly unoffensive macro pale lager. Smell is skunky. Color is a pale and transparent straw yellow. Has a little more bitterness than a typical macro, which saves it a teensy bit (As you can see from my other ratings, I’m a fan of hoppy ales). I still think as far as this price range and style go, it’s just as I’ve always thought of it: unoffensive and cheap beer.

Stella pours golden with a nice thick head. Smooth hit on the tongue with a nice bitter bite at the end. Always a good drink to have.

Seeing as I was just in Belgium I suppose I should rate this from the source. I would have taken some notes but I didn’t know that I hadn’t already rated it. This beer maybe quite light in flavor and fairly light in body, however, it is very clean. Very soft bready sweetness, quite crisp and dry, grassy. Not skunked at all in Belgium compared to what makes it across.

I’m not a beer snob.Sometimes i’ll hapily swill down beers like Corona And do it wit content.Keeps one humble.I see no merit wit Stella. Stella Artois has a cult following with juice heads ,low lives & teenagers.Stella Artois has a diverse range on tulip glasses.I like that .Aroma of h2o grain..flavours are too sweet and syrupy ..then lots of dryness and hop bitterness from the miserable hops.
Don’t drink this.It’l fuck with your head pal.

It’s funny how our tastes change. When I was younger, and this beer first came to North America I thought it was great. The light floral hoping was a nice change from the flavorless Canadian lagers I grew up drinking. Later of course, I began having my eyes opened to the greater world of beer and, needless to say, ceased being a fan of Stella. Well, today I had one on tap to freshen my opinion in order to rate and I’m, not surprishingly, still not a fan. It amazes me that so many people here (north america) continue to pay uber-premium prices for this stuff when there’s usually something far better/more local/cheaper just a couple of taps down......marketing is a powerful thing....

Looking at the fact that this is the most regularly drunk Pale Lager in Belgium and the rest of the world, I think the quality is pretty good. Looks nice and tastes above-average.

Had a bitter taste to it that I found difficult to attach myself to. Not the greatest.
