    Abbot's Ale House, Devonshire St. would be your best bet.

    I find that a large wine glass (nice cheap ones in M&S) does the trick for pretty much any beer.

    The off licenses that sell the beer sometimes have them if you ask nicely.

    Or you can find a pub that sells wheat beer and ask to buy a glass from them.

    As above with offies selling wheat beers but you just have to wait for an offer to pop uo. I also remember Atlantic home care used to stock generic versions and as they are owned by the same crowd as Woodies DIY you could check with either of those. Or maybe a B&Q

    Thanks for the replies,


    Does the glass type make that much of a difference to a beer that comes from a bottle originally

    It can do, for aromatic beers in particular. Whether it's draught or bottle doesn't make any difference.
