    I generally try to drink from sepficic glasses. I must have a traditional pint glass for my Guinness and other stouts. Another beer that is on tap a lot at my place is New Belgium Fat Tire. I have a set of glasses that I picked up for free that a Fat Tire event. It helps to have a pretty wife to simply ask sometime. She snagged a set of 8 tulip glasses with the Fat Tire branded on them.
