Stella Artois
Brand from: InBev Belgium in Leuven, Belgium
Beer category: Lagers
Beer type: Pale Lager
Alcohol content: 5.2%
Pale Lagers are probably one of the best known types of beer, including the drinkable but predictable Budweisers, Heinekens, and Coronas. Stella Artois has a nice yeasty aroma and a clean flavor; get it from a freshly tapped keg for the best taste.

Orval
Brand from: Brasserie dOrval inFlorenville - Villers-d.-Orval, Belgium
Beer category: Belgian Style Ales
Beer type: Belgian Ale
Alcohol content: 6.2%
Beers that qualify as this style rarely fit neatly into beer categories. Color can range as can acidity, malt levels, hoppiness and yeastiness. Though the alcohol is generally under 7%. Orval, unlike other Trappist breweries, only makes one ale available to the public. Between the first and second fermentation the beer also undergoes additional dry-hopping process resulting in a extra-dry, hoppy beer.
