Hopefully that'll change. I was impressed that this place had expanded their craft beer offerings.

That's a good thing. But, like you point out, many of these bars will server any bottled beer without a glass. That's a bad thing. (They're so used to serving beers where it really doesn't matter.) I guess we just need to keep asking for a glass until they get the right idea. Of course, I've been to bars that have been serving real beer for some time, and not only do they serve bottled beer with a glass (sometimes even pouring it for you), but they actually have the proper glasses for different styles, taboot.
