Check out the quick video below we found on How Cast . They did a great job of teaching what beer pairs with its proper glass. Good production value too!

Headquartered in Breendonk, Belguim the Duvel Moortgat Brewery was founded in 1871. It is best known for its signature Belgium Blonde Ale Duvel. According to the Duvel Moortgat website in the 1906's they were the first company that used the Tulip Glass . This brilliantly designed glass helped to trademark its signature brew and put Duvel on the international beer map. The webiste described their Tulip Shaped Glass the following way:
"This innovative glass, reminiscent of a wine glass, had to be able to hold the contents of an entire 33 cl bottle. Up until then, there had never been such a large beer glass. The glass is specifically designed to offer a more complete experience of the beer. The rounded shape allows Duvel's exquisite flavour and aroma to be fully experienced by the drinker. The way in which the glass narrows towards the top also helps retain the carbonation, therefore preserving the head." This helped pioneer a craft beer movement...The glass does matter! |
