Love my frosted Peroni glass for style (but not capacity), and love my Little Creatures pint glass for capacity. Cheers!

Love drinking out of any of the Speiglau beer glasses, have their IPA and wheat glasses. Other than that just a regular schooner.

Spieglau IPA glasses for me too, before that it was the frosted Peroni pilsner glasses

Don't get me started on glasses ! Each beer deserves it's own for its style .

Mine was my dimpled glass I got for a 3rd placing at last years Nationals, until I dropped it on the floor of the shed on my way for a refill. I was devastated, I even emailed last years organizers asking where they got them from so I could get another one printed to replace it but heard nothing back. I bought a two pack of very similar glasses from Aldi which I use now, but it's not the same without AABC logo and placing emblazened across it

I love my Sunner Kölsch glass for that style.

Aprt from that, I sometimes use my ANHC taster glass, my Bitter and Twisted taster or whatever style I feel like on the day (beer style notwithstanding). I have a lot of beer glasses.
I bought a box of Erding Weiss from my bottlo for about $20, and a box of Pils glasses from Potters Brewery, and they get a run when friends come over.
I have an AABC glass and several NSW pewter mugs, for appropriate time and place.

I probably use my nonic pint glass the most

Most valued would be the Orval Chalice and Triple Karmeliet glasses, they are beautiful

I have large cheapies from Overflow - classic shape, fit in a stubby holder.

I seem to enjoy beers from my delirium tremens glass best, it has a shape that really seems to direct the aroma to the nostrils.

You hear a lot about the shape of the glass suiting the style of beer. I think it can be simplefied to a glass that makes the beer look good and a glass that increases the aroma coming off the beer as you sip it. Narrow glasses like many pilsener and kolsh glasses tend to look good because the head is condensed/taller and the thinness shows off the clarity. A glass with a wider opening immediately over the beer is going to allow more aroma to escape to the atmosphere where your sniffer is but I guess also escape full stop. The Delirium tremens glass is pretty good as forms like a wide chalice but it comes in a bit ideally retaining the aroma. Of course this is all my own theories formed while sipping beers so take it for what it's worth.

I do tend to like drinking english/american ales from a pint glass, but I rightly or wrongly percieve more flavour from the DT glass is used, even if I feel somewhat silly drinking a beer out of a glass that is very untraditional (kind of like a star trek nerd being embarrassed to having watched star wars?)
