GUINNESS for strength
“Horse it into you Sur”

Arthur Guinness started his company in 1759 brewing ale. He switched to stout in 1799. The harp (picture left) became a trademark in 1862. The toucan first appeared in 1935.

The company's website has a history section: www.guinness.com (latest check 17.vi.2021).
Better keep a pint ready, because you'll need some time.

Stella Artois

The origins of the brand lay way back in time. In 1717 Sebastien Artois, master brewer since 1708, purchased brewery Den Horen existing since 1366. The company, located in Leuven (Belgium), was then given the name Artois. Stella was born as a christmas beer in 1926. Hence the name Stella = star.
Artois, after several acquisitions, merged with Piedboeuf in 1987 to form Interbrew.
