CHOOSE THE RIGHT GLASS For looks, for taste, for aroma the same beer can display a different aroma and taste in different glassware shapes and sizes. Consequently, there is an ideal shape and size glass for every beer.

PREPARE THE GLASS PROPERLY A beer-ready glass has been washed in warm, sudsy water, then rinsed with clean water. It should be air-dried upside down, on a rack. Residual bubbles adhering to the inside of the glass after lling it indicate that the glass is still not totally clean and not beer-ready.

SERVE IT FRESH Beer should be kept cold at all times for a perfect, crisp, fresh taste. Light can affect the quality of beer, which is why brewers often use brown bottles and recommend that beer be stored in a dark place. Fresh beer tastes crisp, clean, and avorful. When beer leaves the brewery, it is at its peak of freshness.

POUR IT RIGHT Contrary to popular belief, a beer should not be poured down the side of the glass. Instead, it should be poured straight down the middle of the glass, releasing the natural carbonation. The result is a ne head of foam, rich aroma, smooth taste, and a less lling experience, enhancing any meal.

EXPERIENCED BEER TASTERS SWALLOW THEIR BEER After tasting wine, wine tasters spit it out. However, beer must be swallowed to fully appreciate its taste. Beer taste is a balance of sweetness and bitterness. The sweet taste buds are located on the tip of the tongue, while the bitter taste buds are located at the back of the tongue and are accessed only by swallowing the beer.
