I like the long fluted Pilsner types, but they tend to get a bit unsteady if you have had a few, you know the drum! I then revert to the humble schooner glass. On another note, i used to keep the glasses chilled in the freezer, but I found that they caused too much of a frothy head, now I chill them in the fridge.
benson, the important thing is to keep fats and oils out of them. A simple detergent in hot water should be fine, as should the dishwasher. Just don't let your woman drink milk out of them,
"If at first you don't succeed, redefine success."
I am ambidextrous. if the glass is clean, icy cold and holds a schooner full at least of beer, that keeps a head then I will drink out of it........and that includes pewters as well.
BTW went to Grandsons school fete today and picked up 6 x crown lager glasses still in box for $5.00.
