I wouldn’t say that Stella has made me any more aggressive, but it certainly does not agree with my stomach so I have stopped drinking it.

maybe if a few of us saved the empty cans we could compare the ingredients that go into them (other than hops and the obvious stuff for beer?)

the additives will all have a number (Exxx) which can be looked up on the interweb to find out what it is…

i think the wife beater tag is a hangover from when most pubs in england mostly sold beers that were closer to 3%. stella was almost twice as strong. now pubs serve a lot more ‘export’ and ‘premium’ beers that are 5%+

stella tastes crap

I know people that Stella doesn’t agree with and they turn aggressive. Personally it doesn’t effect me but it does effect my stomach (just like GL said).

You are right though, it’s not necessarily one particular beer/lager that does it (although stella seems to be known as the worst) so different ingredients must effect a range of people in varying ways. You’ve just got to find the beers that suit you, and the ones that don’t, through trial and error really.

I like stella but it must be said if i get pissed on it it can turn me agressive, and im really not an agressive person

I tend to drink it due to the dire quality of the lagers stocked around here and the endless cheap offers on it – have not noticed the wife beater effect either in myself or in others who drink it with me – maybe I wasnt paying attention :crazy:

I love stella-its my beer of choice-the only other beer that comes close is carlsberg export!:bounce_fl

They dont make me aggressive, just very drunk!!!!:wink:

I don’t know if you have the very strong beers we can get for almost nothing here: 8°6,10°10,and the worst ,the 11°11.The brand is the alchool degree.

Those chemicals beers drive you mad.A couple of years before,I had a 8°6 summer.It was My Summer of Drunken Love.I’ve done very embarassing things in public places with drunk girls(don’t ask,I won’t give any more details).I use to be very lovely,and even more when I’m drunk.But 8°6 made me have some very violent behavings,and I was lucky to have my mates around.

8°6 is the REAL wife(father,child,dog,car) beater beer.Smoking tyre and drinking 8°6 is a must in some places here(no 8°6,no riots)…

no, maybe it is banned or the tax is too high to make it worth importing… Then again we do have Carlsberg Special brew and Tennents Super and also Gold Label Barley Wine which are 8-10% of alcohol…

I remember some friends even brought back a bottle from France which literally just said

“alcool – bon gout – 96°

They said they had paid less than €5 for this entire 70 cl bottle..

It was exactly that – 70cl of 96% alcohol – I think it is sold for adding to wine to make it stronger….

Although you can get this stuff in England it is very expensive due to tax (and often is actually only sold through laboratory supply places!)

mixed with various other drinks, it lasted my friends (all of whom like a drink) several months (maybe a year)…

Bavaria 8.6% tis evil stuff, always buy my tramp freind a special brew wen i see him though.

tequila brings out my aggressive side, stella just makes me uber pissed! I do notice the difference in my partner tho when he drinks it compared to other beer, he doesnt get violent, just argumentative in an irritating way. every little thing i say he has an argument for, this has lead to some long nights of debating! he could run for PM after drinking stella!

Stella is the worst beer ever, even the smell of it makes me heave. In fact just thinking about the smell and taste of it has made me feel rather nauseous!

I hardly ever get aggressive on alcohol, it’s just not my nature, I may get upset on occasion and pour my heart out but that’s about it.
