Housecall for Health: Beer Glass Shape

According to a new study, the speed with which you drink your adult beverage may depend on the glass you have it in.

FOX’s Colleen Cappon has details in today’s “Housecall for Health”:

There’s a science behind how much alcohol you drink, and it may have to do with the shape of your glass.  Participants in a study at the University of Bristol in the U.K. drank beer from a straight-sided glass or a curved “beer flute.”  Those using the curved glass finished beer twice as fast, and consumed more than those using the straight glass.

Researchers speculate drinkers using unconventional glasses find it more difficult to gauge how much they’ve consumed.
