Curator’s Notes

This 33 cl glass has an unusually elegant interpretation of the tall pilsner form. The bowl narrows gently towards the base before flowing into a striking section of twisted ribbing, which continues through the short stem and into the broad foot. The effect gives an otherwise familiar beer-glass shape considerably more character.

The decoration is restrained by comparison. Waterloo Récolte 6 appears in warm brown lettering, accompanied by a small piece of golden barley. The simplicity of the branding allows the unusual shape and textured glass to do most of the work.

Récolte 6 was a 6% unfiltered pale-blond farmhouse beer made with barley and wheat. The beer has subsequently evolved into Waterloo Récolte Saison, retaining the 6% strength and its connection with the Ferme de Mont-Saint-Jean. La Revue du vin de France
