It depicts a woman with long, wavy hair holding a mug of beer in her hand. She sports beer-related attributes in her hair: barley, hops, wheat, and poppy/poppy flowers. At the bottom of the poster, we see two black and white inserts not created by Mucha. One shows the factories where the beers are brewed, and the other represents the allegory of the Meuse which represents the goddess of the Meuse leaning on an amphora from which the river flows. Les Brasseries de la Meuse was a French brewing group. The Meuse breweries are a company created in 1890 by Adolphe Kreiss and Henri Bungener, originally bringing together two breweries, in Bar-le-Duc in the Meuse and in Sèvres in Seine-et-Oise.
