I wonder what it looks like.
Also I wonder if that 'nucleation site lasered into the bottom for increased hop aroma release' also 'just happens' to cause the beer to go flat faster, thus encouraging folks to buy another beer to replace the flat one.

I actually thought about buying some of them but they are too expensive.
That is one cool glass.

How much?
Think I'll stick with my club-footed lucifer snifter. Looks like Global beer doesn't carry them anymore. Damn. Good glasses, those.

One of the oracle ninjas I work with bought me one, it is a very nice glass, and it does highlight the qualities of the beer. Glass shape is a big deal, there is a wine glass guy who claims wine tastes different out of different glasses! I believe it.

Is the SA logo etched in the glass or painted on? I wouldn't mind buying a set if I could soak them in StarSan for a couple weeks and get rid of the SA Logo.

SWMBO got me a set of these for our anniversary and I love them. But I think that it would take an extra long soaking to get the logo off. It is painted on but it is very resilient. The actual SA logo is pretty unobtrusive and I kind of like the pinstriping.
