Description

Tulip Glass is the world’s most popular beer glass model and it suits many different beer styles. Its large bowl provides ample space for aromatic beers to express their wide range of flavors. The narrowing of the bowl directs the beer to the front of the palate, where the sweetness from the malt is best perceived. The glass accentuates the sweet malt aromas of beer as well as the hop aromas of Pilsner beers. It is particularly recommended to enjoy Belgian Ales, Pilsners, and strong Stouts from this glass.

Taste Characteristics:

Just like wines, beers greatly benefit from the proper shape and thin-rimmed glassware, where the aromas of each beer style come to life. The proper shape, designed for specific beer styles, enhances the important aroma profile for tasting and guides the beer to the right spot in the mouth.

Material Characteristics:

Spiegelau beer glasses are made from high-quality, lead-free German crystal glass. Due to the high-quality material, the glasses can be made extremely thin and light. Thin glass enhances the mouthfeel and taste of beer compared to thick-rimmed tankards. Thin glass also keeps the beer cooler for longer. Despite their thinness, the glasses are highly durable. Durability is enhanced during production with the Platinum Glass process, where even the smallest impurities and defects that weaken the glass are removed from the glass mass. As a result of this process, the glasses withstand thousands of cycles in the dishwasher without clouding or scratching. Additionally, the process creates an extremely smooth glass, preventing carbon dioxide bubbles from sticking to the rim of the glass, allowing the aromas to be continuously experienced by the drinker.
