I special ordered this glass, From a near by wine and beer shop. I honestly have to say, I could not tell the difference whatsoever. Im a die hard Samuel Adams Boston Lager fan!! But the other beer glasses I drink it from, Are just as good, If not better. I`m sure, That great care went into this new glass. However, My taste buds did not jump for joy, after giving it a go.

Cheeeeers!!

Wish I’d known they weren’t dishwasher safe. We washed them once and all the white printing except the “D” on 1 out of 4 glasses disappeared. Glasses are great but the white paint needs work.

Just got 4 of the glasses, looking forward to testing them out. Possibly blind but haven’t been able to figure out if the glasses are dishwasher safe. Can anyone here say for sure?

My husband and I went to a Sam Adams hosted party last night and fell in love with the new glass. We tried beer out of a regular pint and the new glass and the new glass beer tasted MUCH better.
We are going to try it with other beers tonight.

It could be that some of the listed features could be a little marketing hype but I found that the lip of the glass, being curved outward (like the flange of an upside-down bell) was extremely comfortable in my mouth. To me that alone added to a better drinking experience. I tried the glass for the first time at a resaurant and I was very impressed. I am thinking of purchasing a set for the holidays.

Glad to see Belgian glassware mentioned. The tulip shape, bead rim and laser etching are all 3 hallmarks of the Duvel glass.

The apparently sharp crease near the bottom doesn’t make sense to me. Why couldn’t they create a smooth curve down to the bottom?

I’ve been using the glasses for about a year now. I think the glass definately releases more aroma from the beer. Smell is 90% of taste anyway so more aroma = more flavor.
