The new IPA-specific glass from Spiegelau. Earlier this week, the New York Post newspaper ran an article reinforcing what TabletopJournal has been saying for a while now.....that glassware can indeed elevate the beverage experience, just as dinnerware - all tabletop for that matter - can elevate the dining experience if it is chosen in a thoughtful way. And, elevating either the dining or the beverage experience doesn't have to break the bank. Having the proper glassware is one of the least expensive ways to upgrade the beverage (beer, wine, or spirits) experience while at the same time reinforcing the restaurant or bar's brand message. In the article, the Post said: "Tasting craft beer at its source — especially after a tour of its preparation — is like trying it for the first time. And many brewers all over the US are ramping up this experience by pairing your favorite beer with a glass that perfectly showcases its best assets: look, aroma, taste. The right glass is a combination of ideal height, diameter and shape to showcase the good stuff. Today, the first IPA-specific glasses, created by German glassmaker Spiegelau in collaboration with Sierra Nevada and Dogfish Head, are being unveiled at both breweries. (India Pale Ale, first brewed in England in the 1700s to send to troops in India, is leading our craft beer craze.)
