I made mine look like branch -v:

$ cat bin/git-tagv
#!/bin/sh
format='
case %(objecttype) in
  commit)
    sha1=%(objectname:short)
    subject=%(subject)
    ;;
  tag)
    sha1=%(*objectname:short)
    subject=%(*subject)
    ;;
esac
printf "%s\t%s\t%s\n" %(refname:short) "$sha1" "$subject"
'
eval "$(git for-each-ref --shell --format="$format" refs/tags)" |
column -t -s "$(printf '\t')"
