    Sure. I always put sours in it. It's a decent choice for an IPA as well, although I've got an IPA glass I use now. If you need glass suggestions for other stuff let me know, I got you :thumbsup:

    Have a tulip, a weizen, a Guinness pint, champagne flutes, and a few other various wine glasses already.

    I'll be home in a few hours, I'll take a page from my study book that goes in to a lot more detail but I'll give you a quick run down:

    If you only have one glass I recommend you get a nice tulip. It's good for just about everything if you don't have one for each style.

    IPAs: a tulip is a very good go-to for any IPAs
    Stouts: A real heavy stout goes well in a snifter - my 2nd choice for stouts is a very short stemmed tulip glass. Hold these by the bulbous parts, so you transfer some heat to the glass each time, you want your stouts to be "warm" that's when they really open up and flavors burst.
    Hefes: German style glasses are good - narrower on the bottom and wider up top.
    Ales: Pint like glass, but with the bulbous section right before the lip.

    Lastly, NEVER use a regular pint glass, that's the worst type of glass to use, and of course NEVER put your glass in the freezer, the frost the adheres to it is filled with the flavors of whatever shit you have in your freezer and when it melts it will dilute your beer with the melted frost and flavors.

    Weizen was the name of the glass I was lookin for for hefes - couldn't think of it at the time.

    Use that tulip, it's your go-to for sure. The champagne flutes are actually good as well I can't remember the type best for them, I'll find out when I get home, and wine glasses are good for sours as I mentioned earlier.

    I have been eyeing a blood orange brew at my place. Will have to grab it next time I am there.

    One of my favorites from a local brewery. Cocoa nibs, vanilla, and some chilis amongst other things. Served out of the obligatory mason jar.
