Stella is commonly know..
as "wifebeater" in many a pub.

And don't ask for Carlsberg - make it a "Cooking Lager"

Yeah?
Any idea why? Doesn't rhyme...

I recall a Stella advert here that showed an old peasant woman showing a wide big smile and her three remaining teeth, holding a bottle of Stella with the caption "Stella Artois. About as sophisticated as a beer can get."

Well I liked it.

STEEEELLLLLLLAAAAA!!!!!!
Is it "Streetcar Named Desire"? Is that why it's called "wife beater"? That movie had domestic abuse, didn't it?

Fuck it. It's trendy French shite, (here in Canada, anyway).
