    This same question was asked by someone else on a thread re: discussion of favorite beer glasses and I coincidentally had the same question. It was never answered so I am hoping this new thread in this different forum will generate an answer. I actually searched BA archives as well as the web with no luck. The web has lots of glass shapes described but not this one in the 4-5 lists of beer glass shapes that I found. Yet, I see it in lots of posted pictures on BA. I'm sure lots of people know what this is, but I would like to know so I can stop saying that I "...poured the beer into the glass pictured below". That doesn't even work when I write a beer review on BA since photos are not allowed, so I have to use a different glass with a known name for my tasting for reviews.

    Yep it's in the Tulip family for sure. You can search for the Ultimate Be Hoppy Pint Glass for the same shape glass. I recall @Greywulfken finding it online and enjoying it.

    I believe that's also known as a "Squished Sam Adams Pint".

    It ain't easy, it might take a few attempts but it can be done (w/Photoshop).

    It's a knock-off of the Sam Adams Perfect Pint glass. IIRC, SA has actually patented the PPg, so there's a couple different knock-offs out there.

    "modified tulip" is a lot easier to type than "squished Sam Adams pint" but I will defer to the consensus opinion...if we ever acheive one.

    It doesn't have a stem, so it can't be any kind of tulip. I doubt Boston Beer Company is going to sue us, so let's just call it a perfect pint (without the capitalization).

    I think this might be the same glass that @FBarber found since 4imprint also calls it a “craft beer glass” but it’s not listed as a Libby glass.

    IIRC, Rastal is the company that invented the teku.
