Beer glasses

The different types of beer glasses at Barmeister24

We have the right beer glass for every beer so that your guests don't have to sit on dry land. But which beer belongs in which glass? We'll tell you here! We explain the differences between the various types of beer glass. You will now find out why, for example, a wheat beer is not drunk from a beer bar and a Kölsch is not drunk from a beer measure.

The beer mug

A cylindrical glass shape is typical for this type of beer glass. These glasses can hold 0.2 or 0.3 lit ers. Altbier is preferred for this glass, which also explains the small capacity. As the dark beer quickly becomes stale, it makes sense to drink it from smaller glasses.

The beer goblet and the beer tulip

These glasses have a belly, but become narrower towards the top. The stem is relatively short, although goblets have even shorter stems. As the glasses taper towards the top, the head remains longer in them. These glasses are preferably used to drink Helles and Pilsener.

The wheat beer glass

The shape of these glasses can be described as special and unique. With a capacity of half a liter of beer, they can even hold a whole bottle of beer. Hefeweizen and Kristallweizen are drunk from these glasses. This wheat beer has a lot of carbon dioxide, which is why drinking from the bottle is really not recommended. It stands on a solid base, which is why this tall glass is stable. It is narrower in the middle and widens towards the top.

The beer mug

When you think of a beer mug, you probably immediately think of a beer tent with loud music and a great atmosphere. A beer mug like this is sturdy and has a handle. Of course, we have different models here, made of glass and earthenware. Your beer stays cool for longer in the stoneware mugs. With a capacity of 0.5 to 1 liter of beer, any thirst can be quenched. The 1-liter mugs are a common measure at the Oktoberfest in Munich. At Barmeister24 you can buy the steins in different sizes.

The beer bar

The beer bar is a straight glass with a capacity of 0.2 liters of beer. Anyone who has ever been to Cologne and ordered a beer will be familiar with these small, compact glasses. A joke for a Bavarian, but a common and useful measure for the Rhinelanders. Anyone who prefers these small glasses knows that no beer can stand out in them.

The craft beer glass

This beer glass has a long stem that holds a goblet. This goblet becomes narrower towards the top. The capacity of approx. 0.3 liters is well sized for normal thirst. Craft beer has a large fan base. The reason is that it is brewed by hand with great sensitivity.

Remember: The brewing method also determines which beer glass suits your type of beer. Wheat beer is a top-fermented beer that is highly carbonated. With this beer, it is important that the glass opens upwards. This is in contrast to bottom-fermented beer. These glasses should close slightly at the top, which is also known as tapering. Depending on which beer you prefer to drink, you should choose your new beer glasses from Barmeister24 and order them easily online.

Our range of different beer glasses with or without a brewery print and the matching merchandise products is large, so you can find a suitable gift for everyone, whether man or woman.

The perfect look for your bar

If you are a bar owner, you will certainly attach great importance to ensuring that the glasses always match the beer at your bar perfectly. No problem thanks to our large range.

If you own a private cellar bar, you probably won't see it quite so closely, but don't be too easy on yourself. Guests always like it when the glass matches the beer. Beer glasses with a brewery print always look good. As you can see, it doesn't matter which bar you have - the main thing is that the glasses match.

What you also need to pay attention to, however, is cleaning. Always wash thin and delicate glasses by hand. All other glasses can go in the dishwasher. But don't forget to open the dishwasher door at the end of the program, otherwise you'll be annoyed by water stains.
