Pilsner/Weisen edit

Right after the article mentions Weizen glasses are often mistaken for Pilsner glasses, there are three pictures of Weizen glasses labeled as Pilsners! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.1.127.16 (talk) 05:01, 15 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

Missing glassware edit

I noticed that the tulip glass is the common drinking vessel for Scottish ales. I thought the glass used for that beer is a THISTLE glass, which is shaped like a thistle, the Scottish national flower. BiggKwell 23:37, 9 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

"Pot" glass edit

Here in Melbourne, Australia we drink beer out of "pot" glasses, 285 mL... bell shaped top, narrower bottom. I haven't been able to spot anything on Wikipedia about it though. Any help?

Kwak: delicious beer, unique glass. Not seen here yet! edit

Kwak is absolutely delicious, and the glass it is served in is unique, and actually a bit of a laugh as well in my opinion. I'll begin a paragraph on it when i get the chance!

picture edit

The Weizen glass is not a particularly common type of glass and shouldn't be used as the main photo. Also, the angle makes the glass look enormous. Should put a scale in there or a hand for comparison. 38.99.136.166 (talk) 17:43, 15 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Measure Marks, Fill Lines, Filling Mark, or Calibration Mark edit

I would like to see a new section documenting possible measurement and fill marks seen on beer glasses, and their requirements. I've only seen these in the UK, IRE and Europe, never on American glasses. UK is pretty easy with the Crown mark on Pints and halfs. Some of this is covered in the Pint glass article. It does not cover marks for liter (L) or centiliter (CL) measures. I think the EU currently does all the glasses with a CE mark, then an M for measure and the year. Is the measure mark required, and where? I have a Pint Carlsberg glass with the CE Mark I got in Ireland a few years ago. The Pint glass article discusses Irish glasses could have the NSAI marks, and that Ireland requires the measurement marks.

I think German and some other EU countries glasses of the past had a mark from the glass manufacturer, and maybe still do. I have them with VEBA, SAHM, RASTAL. Dutch STELLA ARTOIS glasses have an RC next to fill line that I think is for Ritzenhoff Cristal. Polish beer Zywiec glasses have a mark that states "Zywiec" next to it so maybe the beer maker is certifying volume? I have Grolsh and Kummert-Brau glasses that simply have a line and liter measure, no other mark. So I wonder about the EU requirements? Is the fill-line to assure the patron knows the measure he is receiving and it is not required by law in the EU? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.223.3.29 (talk) 17:26, 28 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

These lines are also called a "Calibration Mark" or "Filling Mark" and various websites say German law requires them to be present. See Eichstrich in the German cuisine article for some additional info. The article Maß also mentions the "calibration mark". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.223.3.29 (talk) 23:56, 1 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

4.4 Pint glass edit

There is no mention of the "tulip". This not to be confused with the tulip used for Duval - it is quite a different shape. 146.90.8.50 (talk) 17:14, 20 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Lead image edit

I'm not happy with our lead image. Aside from the fact that it's a promotional shot of one company's products, it does not represent the glassware in common use anywhere. If we can't find a better image, I'm tempted to replace it with a multi image with a pint glass, pilsner glass, and maybe one or two others. Kendall-K1 (talk) 14:50, 9 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

Possible vandalism? edit

I was interested in the last line of the table "2 l Stiefel/Liesl (Austria)". I do an image search of Stiefel and it get pictures of type of shoe. I think it may be due to the history of German shoe beer glasses given in this link https://www.thrillist.com/drink/nation/german-beer-boots-the-history-of-bierstiefel — Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.64.186.172 (talk) 10:20, 1 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
