Stella Artois
Stella Artois traces its roots to the Den Hoorn brewery in Leuven, whose brewing tradition the brand dates to 1366. In 1717 master brewer Sébastien Artois bought the brewery and gave it his name. The beer that carries the brand today was first brewed in 1926 as a Christmas beer and named after the star. Brouwerij Artois later became part of Interbrew and is now owned by AB InBev. Leuven remains the home brewery, with further production in Jupille, the United Kingdom and, for the US market, the United States.

How we measure this
Two thresholds are at work here:
- The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
- The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.
A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
