Stella Artois

Post by Spudda »

I seem to have found a taste for Stella

The lager in most of the pubs around here seems to be a little hit and miss and although I do enjoy a pint of real ale, I always prefer the Stella

I sound like a piss head but I only drink on a Friday or Saturday, depending on which night I go out and even then I dont go out until after 10pm ... I go out when people are coming home but a couple of pints putting the World to rights with a couple of like minded people floats my boat (beer)

Stella is better than some I suppose. I'm not a lager man meself. Real Ale is where it's at :)

I don't drink much at all these days, just for the taste occasionally.

A couple of pints now and then never hurt anyone.

I ended up drinking Stella on Saturday because of the clubs I ended up in.

I'm not a fan.

Stella is guaranteed to give me a headache. Not a drink I would choose.

I've gone off beer almost entirely.

Empty bottles of gin keep appearing in my rubbish bin for some weird reason though.

Gin is for women.

Everyone knows that.

Apparently Gin is the drink of choice for those who are using drink as a remedy for huge underlying stresses Kwacky (which is why it is associated with women).
If you drink for anything other than enjoying the drink, then perhaps you need to take a step back & evaluate things IMHO (before it can take a hold). :S


Can't remember the last time I drank a Stella, I'll have one next time I'm at a pub just to compare. All larger tastes very similar to my pallet, & a thirst quenching ice cold one on a summers afternoon can be spot on, but other than that..

Not a fan of wife beater (shake)

I drink bottled beer mainly at home tbh but also when out and about. That way at least you can guarantee consistency of the product when drinking bottled beer.

I can't stand gin. I don't like the smell, let alone the taste.

As for drinking I can take it or leave it. It's very very rare for me to drink in the house.

Gin is nectar of the gods, especially Sloe Gin. Im a red wine man mostly though,

Stella sends me loopy, and i get pissed on a pint of it.

I love a g&t or 6. I'd take it over any other alcoholic drink. My uncle makes sloe gin every autumn ready for Christmas. Lovely stuff.

Just back from the Red Squark, couple of glasses of Stella (much to the surprise of everyone else). It was a little different from the Fosters & the Carling, but not definitively better IMHO, just different.
