Boston Beer Co. unveiled a special glass today so customers can savor its Samuel Adams brand beer.

Wine lovers have long used crystal stemware to help experience the exquisite nose of a French merlot or a frisky Australian vin ordinaire, and now the Boston brewer thinks beer connoisseurs have achieved a similar level of discernment when it comes to appreciating state-of-the-art advances in lager delivery-systems.

According to the company, the new Samuel Adams Boston Lager Pint Glass is the first glass specifically designed to showcase beer as brewers intended.

Sparing no effort, Boston Beer said it recruited "world-renowned sensory experts" to work on the design of a glass that beginning in March, will be sold in packages of four for $30 at www.samueladams.com

Well, I have Reidel for my wine, I'm willing to try this. Shape certainly makes a difference in the taste of wine.

I'm curious about trying it with this particular glass. There are some beers that taste better in the bottle then in a pint glass.

A little bit off topic, but I'm thinking of trying homebrewing. Anyone have any experience?
