Stella Artois is a Belgian lager, commonly classified as a pale lager or pilsner-style beer. It is brewed in Belgium and (outside Belgium) by AB InBev and is known for its crisp, golden appearance, light-to-moderate body, and approachable flavor with a subtle malt sweetness and subtle hop bitterness. Typical ABV is around 5% in most markets. Key points:
- Style: Pale lager / pilsner-type beer (bottom-fermented, filtered).
- Origin: Belgium, originally from Leuven; now produced in multiple locations worldwide.
- Flavor profile: Clean, malty base with a light, refreshing finish; moderate bitterness.
- Serving notes: Traditionally poured in a glass chalice in some markets, but standard beer glasses work fine; best when cold.
If you’d like, I can tailor this to a specific market (e.g., US, UK, or a particular ABV) or compare Stella Artois to similar beers in its category.
