About
About
The Hop Trumpet's practical design, featuring a narrow base that gradually widens towards the top, is not just for show. It's engineered to allow the complex aromas of your favorite IPA to develop and concentrate, enhancing your beer-drinking experience fully. This design traps the hop-forward scent, intensifying the aromas around your nose with each sip.
The slightly tapered rim directs the beer flow smoothly onto your palate, ensuring you capture every nuanced flavor. The etched bottom creates a continuous stream of bubbles, maintaining a vibrant head and keeping your IPA fresh and effervescent from start to finish.
This name has a nice ring and immediately conveys the glass's purpose—to amplify and direct the hoppy aromas of an India Pale Ale to your nose. The "Trumpet" imagery fits the IPA glass's tapered, ridged design, which aerosolizes the hop aromatics with each sip.

Care Guide
Care Guide
Proper care of beer glassware is essential to maintain its aesthetic appeal and functional integrity. While the glass is durable and will not deteriorate from washing, the printed designs and inks used on the glass may be susceptible to fading.
For the best results, it is recommended to handwash your beer glasses. Handwashing minimizes the risk of damage to the printed designs and allows for more gentle cleaning. In contrast, commercial dishwashing machines, often used in restaurants and bars, rely on higher temperatures and specialized detergents less aggressive than those typically found in residential washing machines.
Tests show that after approximately 2,500 to 3,500 commercial washes, the ink on glassware may begin to fade and break down. This is a significant consideration for consumers who wish to preserve the visual quality of their glassware. In residential settings, stronger detergents can accelerate this process, leading to a more rapid deterioration of the printed designs.
To extend the lifespan of your beer glassware, consider the following care tips:
- Use lukewarm water and mild dish soap for handwashing.
- Utilize a soft sponge or cloth to avoid scratching the glass surface.
- Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that may damage the glass or the printed designs.
- Rinse thoroughly to remove any soap residue, which can affect the taste of your beer.
- Allow the glasses to air dry or gently dry with a soft towel.
Following these guidelines ensures that your beer glassware remains in excellent condition, providing an enjoyable experience for every use.
