Yep, I know Stella is a lager. I don't prefer lagers, but there are a number of them I also quite enjoy. Just not Stella, which to me tastes just acrid.

Perhaps my opinion of Belgium is very heavily slanted because of their particular exports available to me. Really, apart from Stella, most everything else is really premium abbey-style stuff. Ok, there's also Hoegaarden, but it's a white, which I've already mentioned I quite like. Leffe, blonde and Brune, also much enjoyed.

My favorite German beers are all white ales, but I've had a pils here and there that I've enjoyed as well. I wish I'd kept track of them all. I now actually have an app to do just that.

I'm not a fan of most British/Irish beers, lagers or ales. I've had a few stouts I've enjoyed, but it's really hit and miss. I don't mind a Guinness at all though.
