Achel glass, 15cl

Achel glass, 15cl

Original Trappist Achel beer glass from Saint Benedict's Abbey.

(The Achelse Kluis, Hamont-Achel, Belgium)

Almost every brewery has its own glass. The glass has a great influence on the taste and experience of the beer. In the glass that goes with the beer, the beer tastes best, of course. It is the shape of the glass that brings out certain aromas in a beer.
A strong triple or quadruple, for instance, should not be drunk in a lager glass, because the aromas will remain trapped in the glass.
