It is believed that the shape of the beer container influences the retention of the froth head and, in fact, the foaming. The head of a good beer preserves its aroma and flavor. Since beers differ in the type of froths, the glasses for them must also be different.
Familiar and unusual beer tanks
The goblet is not the most common beer vessel, but it is undoubtedly one of the most exquisite. There are special cups that are designed for a specific foam height. The bottom of such a goblet is cut in a special way. After such a procedure, it collects carbon dioxide; as a result, characteristic bubbles rise for a very long time from such an "uneven" bottom, supporting the cap well.
A beer mug is a more traditional vessel. Beer mugs vary in shape and size. Quite often, beer mugs have special lids. They began to be used during one of the plague epidemics, protecting the drink from flies. Such circles are often painted in folk techniques. The plot is usually comical everyday scenes.
Do not decorate beer with lemon wedges, the fact is that citric acid breaks down foam very quickly.
The tall, characteristic wedge-shaped glass is best for light beers. The capacity of such glasses is 360 milliliters. Thanks to the shape of the horn, these glasses support the foam well. Glass containers allow you to enjoy the transparency and color of the drink. These glasses are believed to enhance the flavor of the beer.
Pints, tulips and bavarian glasses
A pint is a very large glass and is common in Britain. Available in many variations. An English traditional beer pint vessel called nonik can hold a very high head of foam, which is why it is appreciated by experts.
Half a liter is the gold standard for most beer vessels. In some cases, the volume of the glass may be slightly more or less.
Tulip - a glass on a low stem, has a characteristic tulip shape. Its tip expands slightly, and the main part looks a little like an onion. These glasses are commonly used for ales in Scotland. Tulips are excellent at maintaining foam and are believed to have the ability to significantly enhance the aroma of the drink. There are many types of tulips.
Bavarian unfiltered wheat beer glasses are tall vessels made of very thin glass. They convey the colors of the drink well. Their shape leaves enough room for the typical very thick and fluffy head that wheat beers are known for. This glass has been specially designed to maintain a stable head of foam.
