Calgary beer glass 50 cl from SAHM is a stylish and generously sized beer glass with an elegant profile and a distinctly tapered waist. The shape not only gives the glass a modern and balanced appearance but also makes it comfortable to hold. The solid glass base provides stability and a pleasant weight in the hand.
Large beer glasses with a contoured and slightly tapered shape have become common in European restaurants and breweries, where the design of the glass plays an important role in the overall beer experience. Unlike the traditional straight-sided beer glass, this type of glass combines a generous bowl with a narrower grip area. The shape provides plenty of room for the beer while leaving space for a proper head of foam – an important part of serving lager, pilsner and other light beer styles in particular.
Calgary is manufactured by German company SAHM, which has extensive experience in developing beer glasses for breweries and beverage producers. The glass is designed for a recommended serving volume of approximately 50 cl of beer, leaving plenty of room for the foam. The total capacity when filled to the rim is approximately 70 cl.
With its height of 24.5 cm, Calgary has an elegant and tall appearance on the table. The combination of the narrower waist, generous bowl and stable base makes the glass an excellent choice for lager and pilsner as well as ale and other beer styles.

Sahm is a German family-owned company that since 1900 has specialized in manufacturing and designing drinking glasses adapted to enhance each beverage’s unique character. The company was founded by Emil Sahm in Höhr-Grenzhausen, a town known for its glass and ceramics industry. Initially, Sahm produced pewter lids for beer steins and hand-painted beer glasses, but has since evolved into a global player in glass design for the beverage industry.
Sahm’s philosophy is based on the belief that every beverage deserves a glass that highlights its taste, aroma, and appearance. By analyzing the beverage’s characteristics, such as flavor profile and aroma, Sahm designs glasses that enhance the consumer's experience. For example, their Sensorik glasses are designed to improve the aroma experience of beer, making the beverage seem more fruity and fresh.
The company has also invested in sustainability, including installing solar panel systems at their facility in Höhr-Grenzhausen, enabling them to cover a significant part of their energy needs with renewable energy.
With its combination of tradition, innovation, and focus on quality, Sahm continues to be an important partner for the beverage industry, and their glasses are today used by many well-known brands worldwide.
