You can get those shaker shaped pint glasses in the UK a lot, over there they'd tend to be bitter or I personally always considered them cider glasses, I like them a lot for the real ales in UK.
The other pint with the lugs is known over here as a nonic, they stack well behind bars. Then you have the typical guinness tulip
I loved the different glasses for every beer in Germany but it made it a pain working in them because you had so many to look after, but flavour wise it made a difference, it just took me a while to realise that.
The rules for pouring German pils, it's a two stage pour normally, the first one is 7 degrees celcius, the second one is that the first stage should take 7 minutes for the beer to clear and the head to set, before you fill her up and pass her over.
7 minuten, 7 grad.
People will actually request a slow pils or a 7 minute pils.

Great movie, gotta get that one out and watch it again. I only know enough german to sound like an idiot to a german, or just an idiot in general. In that movie I get the impression they are speaking "mock" german like the swedish chef on the muppet show. Dating myself on that one a bit.
The pint glass that Revvy had a pic of is what I have on the shelf. I like it because it is stackable, sturdy and presents the beer well. I don't want anything on it. I don't do free advertising. If I wanted to etch some glasses with my logo on it, that is one thing. I also have some 22 oz. glasses that are quite tall. Again the danger of the sinus beer ******. Oofdah.
Those cupboards only hold so much. I have to make room for some of the bulbous belgian jobbies though. SWMBO would really enjoy breaking those.
