Glassware: Size Matters
Posted by SmallTimeDrinker in Food and Fun on February 11, 2011 5:38 pm / no comments
Recently I noticed a disturbing trend. Bars giving small glasses. It is one thing to order a draft beer and it be given in a smaller glass assuming the price is right. It is totally another to be served a beer with a glass that can not hold a standard bottle of beer. Beer as we all know is a complex beverage. If the beer I ordered has sediment maybe I want that. Nothing is more annoying than having to constantly tell a busboy to not take the half-empty bottle. Besides bars have lots of options for glassware besides using a juice glass.
As for 22 oz and other large bottles. Those get a pass on my glass must fit the beer rule. So remember if your in a bar and beer is not being served right speak up. Make the request for the right size glass!
