Belgians have been making beer since the Middle Ages. There are over 100 breweries in the country ranging from international giants to microbreweries.
The following Belgian brands are included in Foster's portfolio:
- Belle-vue*
- Hoegaarden*
- Leffe*
- Stella Artois*
Stella Artois was first brewed as a Christmas beer in Leuven.
It was named Stella, from the star of Christmas, and Artois after Sebastian Artois, founder of the brewery.
Brewed to perfection using the original Stella Artois yeast and the celebrated Saaz hops, Stella Artois is an optimum premium lager, with a full flavour and clean crisp taste.
In Australia, Stella Artois continues to grow in popularity and has become the number one international draught beer.
