Barrelboy 449 Report post Posted July 19 German style very suitable for pilsners and European style lagers. Where the beer line is, 0.5l is embossed on the side of the glass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dustin Frothman 65 Report post Posted July 20 Good topic. I've been given some "nice" beer glasses as presents over the years but am generally a bit scared to use them in case they break. Was considering getting some cheap Headmaster pub style glasses for use with the Brewflo. 425ml "SA Pint" size of course. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alan Batchelor 27 Report post Posted July 21 Mark, The stein for some good lagers. The chalice for IPA’s. The Weihenstephan because it’s curved. And not to forget the Stella glasses, simple because they are the best (No need for a photo) 🤪Alan 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paul84 255 Report post Posted July 26 Answers to above questions 😁 Been in Port Hedland for 2.5 years now , moved up for work and to be able to go home to my family every day . The plan is open ended but i would say we will have a couple of seasons yet. This decision is mainly up to the Minister of War and Finance , she will let me know when its enough I have pint glasses (real pint sized 🤣🤣🤣) up here, but i spent most of my 20s collecting as many glasses as I could from a pub or a bottle shop when i saw something new. I am thinking of buying a couple of nice glasses for up here as i have done with my whiskys as a glass does make the experience. And no i am pretty open about my business 🤣 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob Courtney 529 Report post Posted Saturday at 10:24 AM When my parents in law went to Europe, they brought me this glass back. A beer needs the correct glass to get the best out of it and a German pilsner/lager does come to the fore in this sort of glass and the same wasy a Belgian beer, needs a Belgian glass. Anyways, Neder in this glass is a treat 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob Courtney 529 Report post Posted Monday at 05:13 AM Bought a Stella Glass today online. Obviously nowhere as near as flash as Alans (the bugger) but it will be my Belgian Lager glass from now on :),. I will put up some other photos as I drink but I won't of the Headmaster pints glasses because everyone has seen one of those and I have a Dab glass exactly like @Barrelboy 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
