Samuel Adams has paired with Riedel glassware to produce this custom-designed glass to enhance the experience of Utopias.

There has been a lot of buzz lately about how the proper glassware can enhance the experience of enjoying a beer. The right glass, or even any glass instead of a bottle or can, will completely change the experience of drinking a craft brew.

The proper glass can be very important, even to the point where Sam Adams teamed up with Riedel to create the perfect glass for enjoying their high octane Utopias.

Choosing the proper glass for your beer can be difficult though. I often have no idea what sort of glass I should be drinking my beer from, typically leaving that up to people who brew the beer or simply resorting to the standard pint glass at home.
