Chuck & Son’s and Maison Balzac redefine beer glassware

Chuck & Son’s and Maison Balzac redefine beer glassware

Sydney-based brewery Chuck & Son’s Brewing Co. has teamed up with Australian homewares brand Maison Balzac to launch a premium beer glass designed as a nod to the classic Australian stubby.

“Glasses that complement the spectacular beverage you’re consuming (of course), but feel equally at home on a styled dinner table. Now, we have the stunning Cérès. The glass that answers all our beer glass prayers.”

The Cérès Beer Glass is a minimalist yet playful piece of glassware, sized to hold 375ml with a design that emphasises a lasting, foamy head while maintaining a refined silhouette.

The collaboration was born from a conversation between the Chuck & Son’s Brewery team and Maison Balzac founder Elise Pioch, who lamented the scarcity of beer glasses that balance form and function.

“Months ago, we chatted to Elise from Maison Balzac, and bonded over many things. One of those being the distinct lack of gorgeous beer glasses out there,” the brewery shared on social media. “Glasses that complement the spectacular beverage you’re consuming (of course), but feel equally at home on a styled dinner table. Now, we have the stunning Cérès. The glass that answers all our beer glass prayers.”

The Cérès Beer Glass retails at $69 for a set of two, available through Chuck & Son’s Brewery, Maison Balzac boutiques, and online at maisonbalzac.com.
