Curator’s Notes

An elegant, elongated tulip glass for Cuvée Watou, its bowl tapering almost continuously from the rim towards a perfectly proportioned stem before opening onto a broad, simple foot. The brewery itself describes the glass as tulip-shaped and designed to show off the beer's full, creamy head.

Decoration is restrained. The Cuvée Watou name dominates the front beneath a small coloured coat of arms, while repeated versions of the same heraldic device are printed discreetly in white around the base of the bowl.

Cuvée Watou is an 8% Belgian blond, a high-fermentation beer with secondary fermentation in the bottle. Leroy describes it as a refreshing golden-blonde beer with mild fruit flavours followed by citrus and orange notes.

This example was manufactured in 2020 and carries both 25cl and 33cl measures. It entered the collection as a gift from a member of the Leroy brewing family.
