Stella Artois
The origins of the brand lay way back in time. In 1717 Sebastien Artois, master brewer since 1708, purchased brewery Den Horen existing since 1366. The company, located in Leuven (Belgium), was then given the name Artois. Stella was born as a christmas beer in 1926. Hence the name Stella = star. Artois, after several acquisitions, merged with Piedboeuf in 1987 to form Interbrew. Read more at the company's site www.inbev.com or at www.stella-artois.be (French and Dutch). |
