Beer Glasses

Post by JaCk_SpArRoW »

Is there such things as different types of beer glasses...i.e. Ale & Lager glasses?
If this is the case...where can one get some of these?

There is no such thing as bad beer. There is only good beer and better beer.

I drink all beer outta the stemmed beer glass "c", except mine would be about 320ml, just right for 2 pours from a 640ml bottle and leaving the sediment behind. I find that shape keeps the beer in good nick. Tested lots of glasses and personally like those the best. I used to print beer glasses, wine glasses, wine bottles, and shooters some years back :D

Cheers, Ed

So would you consider doing it again...with the prices from the website in my previous thread, you could do quite well from it & they only charge $15 P+H to anywhere in Oz and any quantity! ;)

Nah Jack, everything's too competitive now. It was a pain printing on glass and ceramics, all needed to be kiln fired and printing was all done in climate controlled room. Enjoyed the process and still have a few glasses left though. Was making the glasses for Redback, and also some of the smaller breweries over here.

Cheers, Ed

I've got a set of Pilsiners which are great, two pours from a long neck and they look great when they are full with a rich head. :)

I've been trying to find a set of stemmed glasses but bigger than that, I find anything <300ml annoying. Where did you find yours Ed??

RP, got them as leftovers when I was printing glasses. I think they came from Gibson & Patterson. I would have got them wholesale, but I think you can also walk in from the street. Not sure, but think they have stores around Australia or maybe can be ordered online :?:

For lagers and pale ales I like to drink from my pilsner glasses (I just found out they're called that from the link someone posted). For ales, amber ales and wheats I have a glass which is similar to the tall pilsner glass but it curves inward toward the top instead of flaring out, it also has a nice metal trim around the top of the glass. For stouts and dark ales I like to drink them out of a mug (any type of mug) or a pint glass. I usually use the mugs for my home brew as well.

I have these stemmed glasses which I don't even think are beer glasses, I can't work out what they are for; definitely not wine. I like to use those for pilsners and amber ales. I wanted some real stemmed beer glasses for my birthday and asked my girlfriend for some but she said she went to buy them and they look too girly! :lol: - She ended up getting me some more mugs instead and I'm just as happy with those.

Don't ask me why I choose which glass for which beer, for some reason certain types of beers taste better out of certain types of glasses to me. I have no idea what type of beer is supposed to go with what type of glass, I've always just gone with what seems right to me.
