Curator’s Notes

A tall and unusually shaped 25cl glass made specifically for Wilderen Kriek. Its elongated, gently flaring body rises from a particularly substantial moulded base, giving it something of the appearance of a stemless flute without fitting comfortably into any conventional glass style.

For Wilderen, the decoration is remarkably restrained. The brewery's red-and-gold W logo sits prominently near the top, while the word “Kriek” runs vertically up the glass in a much quieter white print.

The beer itself is made from spontaneously fermented lambic matured in old oak foeders, to which cherries are added — making the dedicated, distinctly modern-looking glass an interesting contrast with the traditional brewing method behind what goes into it. Brewery & Distillery Wilderen
