Ales, IPAs, and Stouts: Begin with your glass at a 45-degree angle. Pour gently until it's two-thirds full, then straighten and fill, allowing a healthy head to form. b. Wheat Beers: These beers often have yeast at the bottom.

In fact, drinking a stout too cold can warp the flavor. When extremely cold, stouts can come off as more bitter than intended. So please wait for your stout to warm a little in the glass prior to taking that first sip. Like red wine, allowing your stout to warm after pouring will bring out a lot more character.
