Styles

We have a wide variety of beer glasses tailored to promote your company that are perfect for everything from ales to lagers! It’s important to remember that differing glass shapes are essential for bringing out the specific taste and aroma of each type of beer, so choose the right style glass that corresponds to the specific flavor of your company.

Belgian Style

The belgian style can be identified by the unique and beautiful tulip shape. This design has a bulbous body before narrowing and opening up again to make room for the beer's head. This was created to bring out the best flavor for Belgian style beers, but is also one of the prettiest glass designs to adorn any shelf.

Pilsner

Pilsner glasses definitely stand out from other glassware. They are tall and skinny but widen at the top and are formed to show off the bubbles and clarity of a pilsner, while maintaining the head and trapping in essential flavors.

IPA

IPA glasses boast an iconic design that starts out narrow at the bottom and bowls out at the middle. This shape helps to aerate the hoppiest beers and release a steady stream of aromatic bubbles.

Pint

By far the most common pub glass, the pint glass is used to serve a wide selection of beers from IPAs to stouts. Its design neither takes away or adds much to the flavor of any beer making it popular at any bar. It won’t stand out as much on a shelf, but it will probably be the most used of any beer glass.

Taster

Taster glasses can come in many shapes and sizes. The only thing that makes a glass a taster is size. Usually coming in around 3 to 6 ounces, these small glasses are meant to give people a sample of beer. Commonly used in beer gardens, these small glasses are perfect for anyone sampling your company.

Material Types

Stainless Steel

Beer glasses that are made from stainless steel are great for the outdoors, easy to clean, and do a great job at keeping your beer chilled.

Glass is the most popular material type for beer glasses due to it’s classic style and sturdiness

Crystal

Crystal beer glasses are a stylish alternative, perfect for special occasions and gifts. Though they are very fragile and must be cleaned by hand.
