1、 What are the characteristics of beer cups

Different beers also have specific beer glasses, just like red wine requires different glasses to taste better. Beer is also like this, and there are many options for beer glasses. You can learn more about the characteristics of different beer glasses.

1. Draft beer cup

At present, the most common is the draft beer cup, which is also the most widely used beer cup in the world. Its characteristics are large, heavy, thick, and has a handle, such as American, German, European, etc. Most beers pay attention to clinking and drinking freely, and there is also low temperature, so they are more suitable. Except for beer that emphasizes taste and needs to be tasted carefully, such cups are not suitable

2. Pint cup

A pint cup is a cylindrical shape with a slight vertebral body. The mouth of the cup is generally slightly larger than the body of the cup, and there is a ring of protrusions at the mouth of the cup, which is easy to master, but can help keep the smell of foam and beer for a longer time. Both British and American styles are suitable for this type of pint cup.

3. Holy Grail

The characteristics of the Holy Grail are large opening, shallow body, wide and flat bottom, thick cup wall, and cup feet. Many Holy Grails also have a metal edge at the cup mouth, which looks more atmospheric and is also known as the "Flame Cup". The Holy Grail is designed to highlight the foam of beer, so generally foam is rich (foam is at least two finger wide in thickness before it can have such beer cups as strong ale, double beer, triple beer, etc

4. Wheat Cup

The wheat cup is a beer cup in the style of German wheat beer, and its shape is also close to that of wheat. It is slender, narrow at the bottom, wide at the head, and has a closed opening. It emphasizes the cloud appearance and color of wheat beer itself. The large opening at the top is small to allow more foam to stay on the top and retain the unique fruit flavor of wheat beer.

5. Flute shaped cup

The flute shaped beer cup is similar to the flute shaped champagne cup, both of which are slender, but there is one type that is a slim waist flute shaped cup, similar in shape to a wheat beer cup, with a thin center and two thick ends, but the flute shaped cup is more vivid

6. Straight mouthed cup

The straight cup originated in Germany and is a simple slender cylinder. Like ordinary straight cups used in homes, this type of beer cup is convenient for observing the bubbling of bubbles inside the beer. Beer with clear colors inside looks great and tastes pleasant. It is generally more suitable for Pearson type beer and German fermented beer.

Can beer cups directly hold hot water

Whether a glass beer cup can be filled with hot water depends on the temperature difference between the hot water and the glass beer cup. Due to the glass material, the temperature difference between cold and hot water in a regular glass beer cup cannot exceed 80 degrees. The temperature of hot water is generally around 98 degrees, so when the room temperature is greater than 20 degrees Celsius, the water can be directly boiled. However, if the room temperature is too low, causing the glass beer cup itself to have a temperature of only a few or more degrees, then hot water with high temperature cannot be directly introduced, otherwise it may cause the glass beer cup to burst.
