Gold with foam head

To fully enjoy a good beer, pour it into a beer glass. Whether it is an ordinary lager, a special beer or a white beer, the glass does influence the taste and thereby the taste experience. Therefore, beer brewers almost always have their own glass developed so that the taste of their beer can be best appreciated. There is one maxim when it comes to beer glasses: bottom-fermenting beers taste best in a high and narrow glass, such as a flute or vase. Top-fermenting beers deserve a short and bulbous glass, in which the aromas of the beer get more space.
