Indulge your craft beers with the Birrateque beer glass set from Luigi Bormioli. The glass series is created for all beer enthusiasts who are passionate about beer, as each glass in the series is designed for a craft beer. Birrateque is created in collaboration with the Italian Centre for Sensory Analysis (Centro Studi Assaggiatori), which are international specialists in the study of food sensory perception.
The set consists of these glasses:
Tester: All-round glass with stem for sensory analysis of all craft beers. The glass is designed as a light and elegant technical instrument that is the perfect tool for all brewers. The glass collects the foam in a fine and compact layer and enhances any specialty beer-specific aromas by characterizing the aromatic spectrum, giving this stem glass an advantage over traditional beer glasses.
IPA/Ale: The tapered and lightweight shape combines artistic harmony and technical precision. The balanced design makes the glass a "universal key", while the shape and size of the stem make it easy to handle on any occasion. The glass gives all IPA and Ale beers a fine and compact foam and brings out hops and citrusy aromas.
Wheat: The wide, rounded shape, remarkable dimensions and comfortable grip make the glass perfect for beer tasting in a modern setting with relaxed elegance. The inwardly bent edge delivers the special wheat beer aroma enhanced to the nose, from the citrusy and fresh fruit to notes of grains.
