What do you know? What do you like? When you look into it it's quite a sizeable interesting subject.
I don't know much about it, my stuff is just simple, cheap and effective.

Amongst others I have a two pint glass which is a lovely thing, it came from a Shepherd Neame pub which floods somewhere down South, I don't drink much beer, certainly not that amount so it doesn't come out very often.

I also have a very large wine glass, I like to drink from that occasionally, it feels good in the hand. Tonight for a test I tried to get a whole 750 bottle into it which it took with ease, stopping about an inch from the top. That means it has a capacity of a whole litre, I never realised!

Can one presume it is empty?

I have, somewhere, a lovely vodka glass, conical, that sits in a teeny tiny ice bucket. Must dig it out.

Yes, I poured it back into the bottle, can't drink that amount on a school night. smile

Yes, two different beers in one glass, not for me thanks!

I have several Luigi Bormioli wine glasses which are nice but need to invest in some decent Riedel glasses.

I love wine decanters though and my lovely wife bought me one of these riedel curly decanters for Christmas. Tis a lovely thing.
