Review on 🍺 European-Made Lead-Free Crystal Craft Beer Tasting Glasses by Spiegelau - Set of 4, Dishwasher Safe, Modern Beer Glasses, Professional Quality Tasting Glass Gift Set by Mark Gancio

I'll tell you right away: In my experience, these glasses don't change the taste of the beer much. You don't have to have these glasses to enjoy what you drink. That being said, you can tell the difference - especially with IPAs and Wheat Glasses, which are my favorites. In my opinion, these are the two that make the most noticeable changes; The IPA glass gives off a lot of carbonation due to its ridges, and the wheat glass absorbs strong aromas reminiscent of a beautiful burgundy glass. It's not a hit with the stout or barrique glasses - both enhance their beers - but I don't think it's that noticeable. However, it's more fun than pouring beer into the same straight-walled glass, and it's really fun to elevate your drink just like fine wine or cognac. As far as quality goes, you have to understand that you are getting into beautiful crystal glassware that is thinner and frankly less durable than a pub glass or even a thicker shot glass or teku; The trade-off is that it feels good in the hand and causes fewer temperature changes when pouring a drink. As for the wine glasses, it looks more like Riedel than Libby. I would recommend putting them in the dishwasher if you have the opportunity as some crevices don't do well with hand cleaning and (if you're like me) you're clumsier than your dishwasher anyway. Regardless, it's worth noting that my glasses came with minor lens defects. They're hard to see from afar, and given the typical price point of thin crystal glasses, I can't complain too much. because they last longer, cost less, and work with a variety of beer styles. However, if you are a beer lover I don't think they can be beat.
