# Split-Personality Steins The Dual Beer Glass Allows Drinkers to Put Two Different Beverages in One By Meghan Young | Published 2013-09-20 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dual-beer-glass References: [core77](http://www.core77.com/blog/object_culture/the_pretentious_beer_glass_companys_dual_beer_glass_25558.asp) & [etsy](http://www.etsy.com/listing/117206449/dual-beer-glass) The [Dual Beer Glass](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/design-next-agency1) takes alcoholic beverages to a whole different level, one that may have never existed before, in fact. It features a twisting wall of glass inside so as to accommodate [two different types of beer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miller-lites). Although Half and Half or Black and Tan drinkers do exist, such a glass is like that elusive unicorn everyone is always talking about. Designed by Louisville-based Matthew Cummings of The Pretentious Beer Glass Company, the Dual Beer Glass is quite beautiful to behold as well. Unlike the bulky look of more masculine steins, tumblers and growlers, the Dual Beer Glass is [sleek and elegant](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/domain-glass). Cummings reveals, "This glass is not just the solution to the problem of using a jig to properly pour those types of beers, but it allows you to mix any two beers, even ones that have similar viscosities." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.7/10 - Popularity: 56% | Activity: 78% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Dual Beer Glasses:** The trend of dual beer glasses allows drinkers to enjoy two different types of beer in one glass, providing a unique and customizable drinking experience. - **Custom Mixology:** The trend of custom mixology, demonstrated by the Dual Beer Glass, enables drinkers to mix and match different beverages to create personalized flavor combinations. - **Sleek Glassware Design:** The trend of sleek and elegant glassware design, exemplified by the Dual Beer Glass, introduces a more visually appealing and sophisticated option for beer drinkers. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Beverage Manufacturing:** The beverage manufacturing industry has the opportunity to develop and promote dual beer glasses as a new product category, catering to consumers' desire for unique drinking experiences. - **Bar and Restaurant:** The bar and restaurant industry can embrace the trend of custom mixology by offering dual beer glasses as a way for customers to create their own beer blends, enhancing their dining experience. - **Glassware Manufacturing:** The glassware manufacturing industry can capitalize on the trend of sleek and elegant designs by producing dual beer glasses with innovative and visually appealing aesthetics, attracting discerning consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Dedicated Craft Cocktail Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hybrid-cocktail-glass.md) - [Self-Measuring Cocktail Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/elevated-craft-hybrid-cocktail-glass.md) - [Space-Saving Wine Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-splitglass.md) - [Deceptive Stout Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/schneaky-espresso-martini.md) - [Five-Sided Unique Whiskey Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unique-whiskey-glass.md) - [Perfect Sound-Producing Drinkware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/perfect-cheers.md) - [Conceptual Craft Beer Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sour-glass.md) - [Libation-Cooling Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diamas.md) - [Stackable Minimalist Glassware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aeris-doublewalled-glassware.md)
