The total distance that one bottle of imported Belgian Stella Artois beer has traveled is















!! This is an estimation made with publicly-available resources. Producers are not obliged to make all info public. Above that, kilometres traveled by the bottle are not included.






For reference;

4.430 km

So in reality, the total distance will be much higher.
