About Stella artois
Stella Artois is a premium lager beer that originated in Leuven, Belgium, with its first recorded brewing in 1366, making it a product with centuries of heritage. It is characterized by a smooth, slightly bitter taste and a golden color. A standard 12-ounce serving of Stella Artois contains roughly 150 calories, 12 grams of carbohydrates, and no fat or protein. It also contains about 5% alcohol by volume (ABV), contributing to its caloric content. While not a significant source of vitamins or minerals, like many beers, it offers minor amounts of potassium and magnesium.
Health Benefits
- Alcohol in moderation may support cardiovascular health due to its ability to increase high-density lipoprotein (HDL), or 'good' cholesterol, but moderation is key (1-2 drinks per day for men and 1 for women).
- Contains trace minerals like magnesium and potassium, which are essential for nerve and muscle function, though amounts are minimal.
- Moderate beer consumption may support bone health due to dietary silicon, necessary for bone mineral density.
Dietary Considerations
Selection and Storage
Store Stella Artois in a cool, dark place and serve chilled at 37-41°F for the best taste.
