Stella Artois

Brewed by InBev Belgium
Style: Pale Lager
Leuven, Belgium

Light Saaz aroma. Brilliant straw with small white head and moderate carbonation. A farily decent lager, that’s just not too interesting. Like a budweiser with some zing.

Tap. Extremely light amber color. Small head. Aroma of hoppy water. Has a mild taste that does not leave any impressions and finishes clean with not taste. An ok beer if you want to get drunk..... i guess.....

Very pale yellow, slightly effervescent, minute head, disipates quickly, grassy, herbal aroma, pleasant. Foams quick and fast once it’s in your mouth. Dry bitter flavor, hops lingers. Better then BMC.

Bottle 0.275L. Pours yellow with a fluffy white head that don’t do much for it. Florar/herbal touch to the aroma makes it quite pleasant, along with some malt and hop. The flavor is quite herbal and malty one, with a touch of hop. Nice bitterness as it’s taken, also very subtle one in the aftertaste. Very nice pale lager! / Corpo amarelo com espuma branca fofa que não faz muito pela cerveja. Aroma com toque floral/herbal que o deixa bem agradável, junto com algo de malte e lúpulo. O sabor é bem herbal e de malte, com um toque de lúpulo. Amargor bom ao tomá-la, também um bem sutil no retrogosto. Pale lager muito boa!

Of bigger beers available on tap, this is not a bad way to go. Not bad at all.

Pours a darker gold color. Not really yellow but not quite amber either. A limited head with limited retention. The nose was limited overall but some grainy notes as well as some lager yeast characteristics. Very clean overall but if you really start looking you can pick out some lighter hop notes. The taste has more of a malty presence than what the nose indicated. Some grainy tastes that blend well with a very light caramel flavor. The hops are basically non-existent leaving a sweet finish. The beer itself is rather wispy and tones down the sweeter flavors. Some lighter yeast finish but nothing too bad. The body is light but understandable for style. A clean taste but not as crisp for style either. A very easy drinking beer to say in the least.

Pale yellow color with a mediocre head. Aromas of mild hops and a little malt with a slight skunky aroma. Taste is mildly hoppy as well.

(Sample from August 25, 2006 Beer Club Meeting; 12oz bottle from World Market on March 17, 2008) This is usually what I get at a bar when the selections are Bud, Stella, Heineken, and some other American lager. I think I just like screaming "STELLA!" at the top of my lungs in public. Yeah, I’m sure bartenders have never heard that one. Pours a very white frothy head. Lots of bubbles. Has a semi-sweet smell to it. Standard pale lager color. Extremely light body with something in the taste that makes the toungue water - at least mine. Has a pretty barnyard kinda fume to it. This is probably one of my favorite lagers suited for mass-consumption, thanks to the fact that it’s available at just about every bar around here.
