The chilled glass

I was just telling Steve the other day that you shouldn't drink beer from a frosted glass, as it will have adverse affects. Last week, we went out to 2 different restaurants and we received chilled glasses from both places. I shook my head in dismay. (Although we didn't bother to ask for a non frosted glass since the beers weren't exactly the best of the beers). According to BeerAdvocate.com, you shouldn't accept beer from a frosted glass. They say it will alter the correct serving temperature and water down the beer. It's like people who put ice cubes in their beer...why??

Anyway, check out the site, here's the link to all different types of glassware for beer (there's A LOT of glassware depending on the type of beer you're drinking). At the bottom of the page is the blurb about drinking from a frosted glass. It's also a great site for more professional beer reviews.
