11.2 oz. bottle poured into my trusty mug.

A- This beer is downright amazing compared to other pale Euro lagers. straight forward straw-yellow colored, but the bright white head is what really impresses. Sticks around longer than some craft brews, and laces nicely down the mug.

S- Not the strong suit of Stella. Has that odd cooked veggie/sweetness smell similar to Becks/Heinie/Grolsch. Meh.

T- Stella separates itself on the taste. So much better than any other pale Euro lager. The sweetness is almost tea-like, reminds me almost of an ESB, but without the biscuity qualities of the malt bill. Simple, refreshing, and doesn't have any nasty corn flavors.

M- medium side of thin. Decent carbonation. The small amount of hops drys just a bit to invite another sip

O- This is one of my very favorite macro's, and will take it any day over it's Euro lager kin. Yummy.

God this beer is so good. It's a crisp, refreshing lager and can be drank like water. Flavor is all there, appearance, taste and mouthfeel are all accurate, but the smell could be improved. I've had many in my ife but this one is the one I will review. It has never disappointed me in the bar.
