Belgians have been making beer since the 14th century and Stella Artois reflects this tradition of finely crafted brewing. The world 'Stella' is Latin for 'star' and Stella was originally a limited release Christmas beer. The word Artois comes from the surname of the master brewer, Sebastian Artois.
In Australia, Stella Artois continues to grow in popularity and is the number 1 international draught beer.
This golden Belgian brew is a signature blend of premium malt and Saaz hops. Quite malty on the mid-palate, Stella Artois is a full flavoured, superior quality beer with a rich, estery, creamy aroma a fine clean bitterness and a hint of citric fruitiness.
