“There’s a sucker born every minute.” At least that’s what P.T. Barnum thought. Of course, there’s also this famous quote attributed to Ralph Waldo Emerson, “If you build a better mousetrap, the world will beat a path to your door.” When it comes to beer, it seems the recent trend hasn’t been merely crafting delicious-tasting, extraordinary brews, but also in improving the actual containers from which these new concoctions are enjoyed.

There is a product which has been hitting more store shelves as of late, and it is creating a niche in the marketing world of beer connoisseurship. What is the product? They are called pretentious beer glasses. Pretentious beer glasses are claimed to enhance the color, bouquet, flavor, and overall enjoyment of finely-crafted beers. They come in many shapes and sizes, and are usually handmade and manually-blown glass vessels.

Do you have beer taste on a champagne budget? It might be time to consider an upgrade from those cheap Solo cups, to a more elegantly-appointed model which demands respect. At the same time, it might be time to consider grabbing your wallet as well. Some of these models run well beyond $100 per copy. Cheers!

Here's a description of the Pretentious Beer Glasses:

This is the ultimate Pretentious Beer Glass Company experience. A full set of beer glass to cover virtually any craft beer that you will encounter. Set includes a Hoppy Beer Glass, an Aromatic Beer Glass, a Malty Beer Glass, a Subtle Beer Glass, and a "traditional" Ale Glass. Each glass holds approximately 12 oz of beer with a 2-3 oz. head.

Each glass is packaged in a branded gift box with a description card featuring recommended beer pairings and information about each specific design. So if you are buying this as a gift, it is ready to go!
