Most Versatile Beer Glass?

Snifter or a tulip can accommodate any beer style.

 

I use a beer glass like the one that was illustrated by MNale abov. I'm drinking from a similar (11 oz) "saison dupont viellle provision" now. I like it because it is similar to the sham pilsner glasses I drank from at taverns after turning 21 in Oregon in '69. It is fairly stable on a surface and easy to hold. I will gladly sacrifice an optimum aroma and appearance in return for not spilling the brew on my lap or the table. I see nothing good in a klunky shaker glass. As an aside, I gave my brother-in-law (I do like him) a gift of a scandinavian glass that had a rounded bottom that is stable only in a wood holder that was supplied with the glass. Elegance without practical application

 

Das boot glass.

 

I'm a tulip fan, it works for many styles. These Libbey tulips I bought off Amazon are fairly sturdy

 

The viking horn is the best. The choice of barbarians for the last 1,000 years +

And they are sustainable!

 

My local (awesome) beer bar does that. They have reduced the amount of pilfered glasswear many-fold

 

-not a popular choice, but I favor the plastic govino tumblers outdoors and in the shop.
The shape works well enough for many brews and no breakage ( and there is a thumb indentation).

 

Duvel tulip as many others have already mentioned. That said, I drink most of my beers out of an oversized red wine glass from Ikea these days.

 

I like it!

 

I have a bunch, but these are my go to's

 

Anything but a shaker pint, absolutely hate them as a beer vessel. The main strengths are durability and the ability to stack, critical for the bar owner, but a generally lousy vessel to consume beer, in my opinion of course.

 

I ogle that glass every time I see it, simplicity at its finest. I might have to drop a hint to the wife. What’s perfect is in the eye of the beholder, that’s perfection.

 

Dale, do you have an upcoming birthday?

Yup, she is a beauty (as Steve Irwin would say).

Cheers!

 

Not till November, unfortunately, lol.

 

Good things come to those who wait.

Cheers!

 

The most versatile beer glass is the one you pour most to all your beers into.

 

That works out. It’s probably the next time we can leave the house.

 

Could not resist.
