The evolution of the beer glass is just as rich as the history of beers and lagers themselves. In fact, crafting them is considered an art form in its right, producing museum-worthy beauties that collectors are verily fond of. Etched and engraved beer glasses, for instance, are a favourite among beer lovers and collectors. Etchings and engravings add a subtle elegance to a classic beer glass. Not only that, it also allows limitless opportunities and potential for customisation, making engraved tankards and beer glasses great gift ideas, regardless of the occasion.

Beer glasses are some of the most decorative barware you will ever find, along with champagne flutes and a martini/wine glasses. They are also arguably the most practical when it comes to function and capacity. This drinking vessel can hold as much as a pint of beer or even more. While tankards are popular in most bar scenes, you will also find a wide variety of glass types you can choose from to add to your own collection or give as a special gift to a friend:

• Flutes –Tall and thin glasses that help preserve carbonation and highlights coloration

• Nonic – This type of glass closely resembles a pint glass, but it features a bulge close to the rim, which allows for added grip

• Pint glass –The quintessential beer glass that comes with a large body and a handle.

• Snifter – Features a narrow top and a wide bottom, which allows for agitation of the contents and a concentration of aromas released

• Tulip – This bulb shaped glass helps retain extra foam and smells within it
