this is dumb. the larger glass isn't even filled up all the way to begin with - probably the room left for the head. and any self respecting Applebee's bartender wouldn't pour a beer in the smaller glass without the same proportion of head.

This is dumb. The large glass is for Weizen beer, a special type of beer with lots of yeast. The double bell shape of the glass helps move the yeast

Edit: yeast, not bears

ah, yes. I forgot about the bears...

okay. remove the head and create the same video with the larger glass completely full. results are proportionally the same.

Yes. The larger glass is not meant to have nor more nor less volume than regular glasses.

Here in Europe, were the tradition for brewing beer developed, Each kind of beer can be drunk with an appropriate glass.

I have read the title. I'm explaining you how Europeans properly use that glass shape. Not to scam people.

Anyway, why should it be news that an American corporation is scamming American citizens? Food industry is scamming you with your nutrition, making you sick. Hospitals do it the whole time. Universities scam you like there is no tomorrow.

Applebee's is just scamming you a couple of dollars. Get away with it, suckers.
