The beer dates back to 1366 but the current tasty recipe dates back to the more recent times of 1926 when it was first brewed for a special Christmas beer. The name Stella means Star and was used to commemorate the season. The beer was so tasty and popular the brewery decided to continue making it and now makes up about 75 percent of Belgium’s pilsner market making over 8.6 million hectoliters of it a year. You might be wondering what is a hectoliter well it is a unit of measure used for homogenized products equivalent to 100 litres so this would represent 860 million litres- an amazing amount of beer.
