About
Stella Artois (pronounced /ˈstɛlə ɑrˈtwɑː/) is a 5% ABV (formerly 5.2%) lager first brewed in Leuven, Belgium, in 1926 as a Christmas brew, and named Stella after the Latin for "star".
Although Belgium is best known internationally for its ales, the so-called "table beers", the bottom-fermented pilsner lagers such as Stella Artois head the list for domestic consumption, making up almost 75% of Belgian beer production. Stella is promoted as an international brand by its brewer, InBev. In its home market of Belgium, however, it is marketed, priced and sold as a regular lager. Despite its success internationally, the number 1 selling beer in Belgium is its sister beer Jupiler.
