Which beer glass goes with which beer? How to choose the right glass

A good glass makes a beer better. The shape determines how the head forms, how the aroma rises and how cold the beer stays. That is why almost every beer style has its own glass.

Pils: tulip glass or vase

For pils, choose a small, narrow glass that keeps the beer cool and holds the carbonation. Think of the classic Grolsch tulip glass or a flute.

Weizen: tall and slim

A weizen glass is tall and wider at the top, so the cloudy wheat beer gets a lovely, firm head. See our weizen glasses.

Tripel and abbey beer: goblet or chalice

A goblet or chalice on a stem keeps your hand away from the beer, so it does not get too warm. The wide bowl lets the aromas of a tripel or dubbel come out well. Discover our range of specialty beer glasses.

Witbier: the thick, hexagonal glass

The sturdy Hoegaarden glass keeps witbier cool for longer. See the Hoegaarden glasses.
