==Glassware==
There are many different types of glasses used for serving lambics. The most common is a traditional straight-walled tumbler. It is a versatile glass used for all types of lambics. Guinard notes that a large, brandy-type glass is used for drinking kriek while a champagne-style flute is used for drinking framboise.<ref name="Guinard">Jean-Xavier Guinard, [[Books#Classic Beer Styles: Lambic|Classic Beer Styles: Lambic]], 1990</ref> Nearly every style of glassware has been used by breweries and cafés alike to serve lambic.
==Pouring a Lambic==
Lambic should be poured very slowly, especially in the case of carbonated lambics like geuze and fruited lambic, so as to not disturb the sediment. The lambic should be poured into a tilted glass that eventually moves to the upright position. In the video below, Armand Debelder of [[Brouwerij_3_Fonteinen|3 Fonteinen]] demonstrates the pouring technique for a geuze.
