Manufactured 2022 Curator’s Notes This Bavik Super Pils glass is an unusual interpretation of pilsner glassware. Rather than following the familiar tall, narrow pilsner form, it adopts a more generous ale-style shape, with a fuller bowl and elegant stem. The result is a distinctive piece of glassware for a beer style more commonly associated with simpler pilsner glasses.
The branding is deliberately restrained, with the Bavik Super Pils logo taking centre stage. A closer look reveals a subtle embossed detail on the foot, echoing the small emblem above the Bavik name and adding a refined finishing touch to the design.
Produced in 2022 for a 25cl serving, this glass demonstrates how modern breweries continue to experiment with presentation. Unlike many collector pieces, this is a glass that would feel entirely at home as part of everyday Belgian beer drinking.
In 2026, Bavik Super Pils was named World’s Best International Lager at the World Beer Awards.
