Because smell is integral to taste, and a glass allows the aroma of the beer to reach your nose while a bottle does not.
Plus, the lip of the glass is thinner (unless you are using gas station glasses or old jelly jars), which generally enhances the taste of a good beer.
And, you can pour the beer to have a slight head. Head is always good.
