Jester369 had some wicked sweet pint glasses printed up (I *swear* there's a picture of them somewhere...). Not too much $$, either, IIRC (but only two-color printing). Dude's had some printed up recently, too. Might touch base with those guys if they don't chime in.

 

Dude just got some made. Not sure if you'll find any much cheaper.

How close are you to opening your place? I was just in Redding last week and will probably be driving through again in April.

 

Good thread. I was wondering too. I'd like to print some for my wedding party...

 

You can get home glass etching kits...

According to the instructions, it takes 15 minutes for each etching. That's acceptable for a small project, but not for an entire bar's worth of glasses.

 

oh, wasn't aware he was trying to stock a bar.

 

just getting the $$$ together I still have a bunch to do. and a lot more money to collect but I have my quote back from JV northwest and I am fairly sure we are going to go with them for the brewery
give a call next time your in town I'll buy you a pint or 3

ya I am going to need 500+ pint glasses but there also going to be for sale at the brewery. So I need to get them cheep way cheep.

I don't know what the deal is but many of the pints I have purchased the artwork does not make it through the diswasher. But, the one color printing on some of them holds great. I don't know what the different process is. I had one glass from a beer festival that completely lost the front color logo but the printed one color sponsors logos has not faded a bit.

 

you have a great point I really love the printing on the Lost Coast Brewery pint glasses I have had some of those for well over 3 years now and not even a scratch on them and I have some from other places and a year later the printing is almost gone.

I got mine from Grandstand Sportswear & Glassware

For a two color, there was a 144 piece min, and with shipping it was just about $2 a glass. They came out very nice.

I ordered printed wine glasses for my wedding and they turned out great. I think the min. is pretty low too.

I just updated that link with a pic. I'm fairly satisfied with them, considering the price.

jaybird, if you are ordering 500 of them, they'll get cheaper in bulk. WAY cheaper. I'd recommend www.discountmugs.com , I really would. Great CS, good competitive price, and DAMN fast.

 

thanks Dude I looked at them a couple of days ago because of your glasses they really do look killer. I have but 1 concern with any of the glasses I buy they HAVE to hold up!!! first and formost and then secondly is cost. Thanks for the link I am going to call the 2 places suggested tomorrow.

Sorry - no clue about dishwasher durability. I wash my beer glasses by hand. My dishwasher makes all my glasses cloudy over time.
