Beer Glasses, Part Three - Slashfood's Glassware Guide

by Monika Bartyzel, Posted Dec 17th 2008 @ 1:00PM

Tulip Glass

Like a Scotch glass that employs the tulip shape for aroma, this glass works well for those wow-inducing aromatic beers and strong ales. This is the go-to glass for aroma-heavy Belgians, and on a budget, a brandy snifter is a perfectly reasonable substitute. But I wouldn't cradle the snifter if you're filling it with beer.

Stange

A stange is much like a Tom Collins glass, but holds a bit less – it's tall and thin with very little flair. These glasses work for delicate beers like light ales, and are most often found in Germany.

And finally... When looking to kill two birds with one stone, large wine glasses can save the day. 22oz wine glasses will work well for most Belgian ales, and give you double-duty on your glassware.
