Roemers (Dutch) or Römer (German) are a type of wine and beer glass that evolved in the Rhineland and the Netherlands from the 17th Century. They have their roots in the Waldglas particularly the Berkemeyer, Krautstrunk and Nuppenbecher of the later Middle Ages which were produced in northern Germany, the Low Countries and central Europe.

Basically, a Romer Glass is a wine glass with a green base that looks coiled, topped by a clear bowl. The first Römer glasses were produced in the 16th Century along the Rhine and in the Netherlands. The style evolved from “Waldglass”, and started out simply, as a cone on top of a coiled stem called Bekemeyers. Over time, the bowl of the glass got thinner and rounder… and the bottom of the coiled stem was given a wider base.
The green color comes from the potash and sand from the forest. Originally, the entire glass was made green, but wine lovers felt that the green interfered with the color of the wine… so the glasses are now made with a green stem and clear bowls.
