Stella Artois
by Stella Artois · Beer · Leuven, Belgium
Stella Artois is a Belgian lager from AB InBev, linked to the brewing tradition of Leuven, where the Den Hoorn brewery has records dating from 1366. The beer was created in 1926 as a Christmas gift for the town's residents, and the name Stella comes from the Latin word for star. The version sold in Brazil is brewed here by Ambev, at plants such as the one in Anápolis (GO).
Ambev classifies it as an all-malt European Lager, made with water, malt and hops, and gives a bitterness of 16 IBU. The ABV stated by the manufacturer is 5%. The brand serves it in its own chalice and sells it in cans and bottles from 269 to 600 ml.
