A: A very pale yellow color. Has a thumb sized head, small amount of retention and medium amount of lace. Also has a noticeable amount of carbonation bubbles rising to the surface

S: A very clean sweet smell, very typical of a pale lager. Also detectable is a small amount of bitter hops and the sweet malts are very identifiable.

T: Has a sweet and bitter taste to it that goes with the smell. Also has the typical water taste that comes with a Pale Lager. The carbonation is not really a factor here even though you can see the bubbles rising up to the surface.

M: Is very light bodied with the hop bitterness building up on the palette toward the end of the drink. The carbonation level is very good and gives it the correct kick to go with the sweet bitterness.

O: This is a very good example of a Pale Lager and is much better that its American counterparts. This beer is perfect for someone wanting to enjoy a few drinks without getting something very hardy.

Serving type: bottle

Bored to tears are at Tampa intl airport and the Beer list is dreadful. Special is dollar off Stella's so here we go.

A - clean light straw with no head to speak of. Decent lacing. Budlight kinda look

S - crisp and tart. Has a bit of a zest. Nothing jumps out at the nose.

T - has a nice crisp bite. As far as draughts at a run of the mill place, you can't go too wrong with a Stella. A little citrus hidden in there. Hard to believe this was originally a holiday beer... I think stouts and porters for Christmas!

M - light body that finishes clean. No aftertaste. Just simple and clean

O - overall it is what it is. It's a great beer when nothing else is available.

Serving type: on-tap
