All too often people drink beer from a can, bottle or wrong glass. By having the proper glass you will reward yourself with a much better beer experience.
Glassware has a variety of implications in drinking beer. First, is smell. You taste more with your nose than your tongue, and you can’t smell from a bottle. Second, a visual inspection of the beer lets you know what your drinking. You can see the color, head carbonation etc. If there is something wrong with the beer here is where you get your first clue. Finally, a glass can make you feel special. Look at some of the above glasses. Do they not look like fun to drink from?
