Choosing a Right Beer Glass

The right glass can make all the difference when enjoying a beer. Here are some tips on choosing the right glass for different types of beer:

For lagers, pilsners, and other light beers.
For ales, stouts, and other dark beers, try a tulip glass or a snifter.
For fruit beers and sour beers, go with a flute or goblet.
For Belgian beers, try a tumbler or a chalice.

Temperature Matters

If you want to enjoy a perfectly poured beer at home, it’s important that it’s the right temperature. Most beers are served below 40 degrees from the fridge, cooler, or draft system. A good beer usually tastes their best between 50-55 degrees. Use a room temp glass and let the beer sit for a few minutes to reach its ideal temperature.

To Get Your Beer To The Perfect Temperature

For bottled beer, place it in the fridge for about 30 minutes before serving. For canned beer, place it in the fridge for about 15 minutes.
To pour draft beer, pour it into a room-temperature pint glass and let it sit for about 5 minutes before drinking. (This allows the carbonation to settle.)
If your beer is too cold, it will taste flat.
If your beer is too warm, it will taste overly sweet.

Pouring The Beer

Now that you have the correct glass and your beer is at the right temperature, it’s time to pour! Here are some tips for a perfect beer pour every time:

Start with an icy cold glass.
Hold the glass at a 45-degree angle away from you as you begin to pour.
Aim for the center of the glass, and fill it about two-thirds of the way full for maximum head and carbonation.
Once the beer is two-thirds of the way full, lower your pouring angle to a 90-degree angle and begin tilting your glass back up to upright while continuing to pour until you reach your desired amount.
As you are finishing, aim the stream of beer at a 45-degree angle towards the side of your glass and stop pouring as soon as you reach that desired level in order to achieve a clean edge on top of your head.

With practice, you’ll be able to pour the perfect beer in no time. So next time you’re having friends over, put on an apron, grab a beer and show everyone how to pour beer like a pro!

How To Pour Beer From The Tap

If you’ve ever been to a bar, you’ve probably seen somebody pour a beer from the tap. It looks easy enough – just open the tap and let the beer flow into the glass, right? Well, there’s a bit of technique involved in pouring a perfect pint of draught beer. Here are a few tips to help you pour like a pro:

Start with a clean glass. Any residue on the glass can affect the taste of your beer, so make sure it’s clean before you start pouring.
Choose a glass that fits the type of beer you are pouring.
Hold the glass at an angle of 45-60 degrees.
Place the tap spout over the middle of the glass and press the lever to start gently pouring.
When about 20% of the glass is full, slowly straighten out your arm until you are holding your glass upright at 90 degrees in order to fill it up with foam from the tap.
Continue pouring until you have a ¾ inch head on top of the beer – if necessary, adjust the angle when you reach this point to minimize any overflow due to foam expansion.
Allow bubbles in the head to dissipate then adjust the flow rate to ensure a perfect pour every time!
Enjoy your freshly poured beer!

How To Pour Beer From A Bottle

Pouring beer from a bottle is pretty straightforward – just open the bottle and let it flow into your glass. However, there are a couple of things to keep in mind:

Make sure your bottle is cold before you start pouring. Warmer bottles will result in more foam (head) being formed on your beer.
Open the bottle slowly at first to avoid too much foam being created. You can then increase the flow as needed.
Avoid tilting the bottle too much as you pour, as this can also result in too much foam being created. Instead, try to pour straight down into your glass.
Stop pouring when your glass is about three-quarters full to allow for some head formation.
Enjoy your cold, refreshing beer!

How To Pour Your Own Homebrew

If you’re lucky enough to have your own home brew on hand, here’s how you can pour it like a pro:

1 . Start by chilling your home brew well ahead of time – colder beer will result in less foam (head) being formed when poured.

2 . When you’re ready to pour, open the container slowly at first to avoid too much foam being created, and then increase the flow as needed.

3 . Again, avoid tilting the container too much as you pour to prevent excessive foam formation – instead, try to pour straight down into your glass..stop when it reaches about three-quarters full. enjoy!

How To Pour Beer From a Growler

Pouring beer from a growler is a great way to enjoy craft beer straight from the tap. But it’s also important to pour your beer correctly so that you don’t end up with too much foam or an uneven pour. Here are some tips on how to pour beer from a growler like a pro.

Before pouring, make sure the growler is chilled and the lid is properly secured. This will help keep the carbonation in the beer and prevent wasted foam when pouring.
When ready, tilt the glass at a 45-degree angle and begin slowly pouring your beer down its side until about ⅔ full. Then stand the glass upright and finish filling it to the top with minimal head (foam).
Lagers tend to be easier to pour than ales, stouts, or nitro beers due to their lower viscosity and density; however, all four of these types of beers can be poured successfully by following this method.

Pouring From A Growlerwerks Ukeg

The Growlerwerks Ukeg allows you to store, dispense, and carbonate your homebrewed or other craft beers while keeping them fresh for weeks at a time. If you’re using this device for dispensing beer then follow these steps:

Make sure that your Ukeg has been properly carbonated and pressurized (around 30 psi) before attempting to dispense any beer into glasses; never attempt to use it without proper carbonation as it could lead to foamy pours or wasted product!
When ready, position glasses similarly as described above and place them beneath the spout of your Ukeg – then pull down on the lever gently to start dispensing! Once you’ve achieved ⅔ of your desired amount, quickly switch the glasses back into an upright position and complete filling them from there – again aiming for minimal head on each pour!
As mentioned earlier, lagers tend to be easier than ales or nitro-beers which have higher viscosity/density levels; but with practice, you’ll find that all beers can be perfectly poured using this simple technique regardless of their type!

Ready to enjoy a perfect pour of beer from your Growlerwerks Ukeg? Make sure you’ve followed the instructions for carbonating, pressurizing, and positioning glasses properly before dispensing, and you’ll never have to worry about foamy pours or wasted product again. Don’t forget to pull down on the lever gently and switch into an upright position once ⅔ of your desired amount has been reached – then fill the glasses. Try it out today!
