Perfect Pint Glass to Explode Flavors and Maximize Beer Enjoyment - Exclusive Nucleated Hop Leaf Over 100 Points of Nucleation
I have always found that drinking beer from the proper glass enhances my experience but I have wondered if it is just a pretension on my part. The Cheers All Ultimate Pint Glass* has changed my mind. It has a nucleated hop leaf on the bottom that produces a very finely beaded foam and if you drink the same beer out of a shaker pint and this glass you will immediately recognize the difference in texture. The nucleation points also enhance head retention and aroma. The narrowed top helps to trap aromas while the flared lip releases the aromas and spreads the beer across your tongue. I also like the way the glass feel in my hand. This glass makes a difference.

Luigi Bormioli Birrateque Craft Beer Glasses IPA
This is a perfect IPA glass. At 18.25 ounces, this glass is big enough to take a whole 12 ounce can or bottle and leave room for a healthy head. The shape allows the beer to flow into your mouth while maintaining the head. The manufacturer has etched nucleation points into the bottom of the glass to maintain a stream of bubbles from the bottom to replenish the head and release aromas. Its dishwasher safe and it has some heft so it feels good in your hand.
