As I bash lagers and pilsners quite a bit, I must say this beer hit the “B” spot as its like 85 degrees Fahrenheit today. The color on the pour is a crystalline gold with a prosperous white head that is also creamy in texture, with the lace a fine veil to conceal the glass. Nose is prototypical lager fresh and sweet, nicely malted with the start sweet and the top light to moderate in feel. Finish has a pleasant acidity with the hops apropos to the style, quite dry aftertaste and a quite drinkable lager that I’ve not sampled in years, a great session beer for the hot summer days in Arizona that are just around the corner.

Jul 29, 2002 Updated: Sep 28, 2004It's been some time since I had this one but it's all over England now. I remembered it being great and exclusive in my student days, and although not outstanding certainly one of the better choices for British lager drinkers. Smooth, lightly carbonated, malty lager with a nice crisp hoppiness around it. A little skunkiness in bottled version.

Feb 13, 2002 Among commercial pilseners from giant breweries, this is one of the best. Very drinkable.

Mar 15, 2002 Updated: Aug 2, 2003i used to think this was the best. there are heaps better european pilsners out there. the imported stuff in bottles, is a bit watery, and the stuff on tap, in Australia, (which is brewed by CUB) is very fruity, and gives you a headache.

Apr 7, 2002 An acquired taste for many palates. The abrasive flavour can be off-putting to new takers. Most drinkers graduate to this tipple from nasty Carling. One of the few beers in my experience that tastes better from a can than from draught. Can’t beat the real stuff from Belgium though!

Jun 21, 2002 Updated: Apr 25, 2007Well, I can’t believe it, I actually had a great glass of Stella. Lovely bready malt, but light, with a fantastically fresh hop note. Brewed in Australia. If it was this good all the time I’d give it a better score. Unfortunately most other times I’ve tried it it’s been mediocre at best.
