    A FB friend of mine just posted a photo of his crazy-big collection of brewery and non-brewery glassware, and that got me thinking:

    Styles or appropriateness be damned, what's your favorite glass to enjoy a beer from? The one you go back to time after time because it just feels perfect in your hand.

    For me, it's either my Spiegelau stemmed Pilsner glass, or a branded 12 oz snifter from Carlyle Brewery in Rockford, Illinois. They were selling them a few years back as part of an anniversary celebration and I was just getting into beer at the time, and my wife bought me a pair as a keepsake. Good memories.

    [​IMG] My snifter from Uinta Brewing. It also can act as a compass so I know I'll never get lost even if I'm shitfaced drunk in the woods.

    Nonic glass unless it is a Pilsner beer. I do like some of the "jelly jar" glasses used in some small bars/eateries. Kind of goes with battered fish and chips.

    I love all of my branded tulips and snifters but there's something about the feel of my $2 stemless wine glass.
