[smakudwn]

[nostalgia]

Got my kit yesterday! Ordered on 3/16, arrived 4/21.

The four shot-glass sized pint glasses are cool, even if they are plastic. The opener is nice, too.

Definitely worth what I paid for it

I got mine last week. Just coming back to see the reactions to the plastic thimbles.

The point of this seems to be to get your info and then apparently have names in certain markets to ask you to take their marketing surveys.

Apparently I am not in their geographic market....

For free, I did expect better.

Well CRAP! now I don't feel so special anymore....
I am a loser just like Laughing Gnome, just better looking...

I haven't even received my plastic cups yet, and they've already sent me a survey.

 

[Sigafoos]

Ooh, the panel is exciting! Sign me up!

 

[McKBrew]

I haven't received crap.

 

[Kuglehaus]

Got mine a couple days ago, 4 lil cups and a keychain, but a nice tasting posterboard to add flair to the barn/brewery wall.. good enough for free...

 

[Munsoned]

I think the real test will be trying to figure out something cool to do with the plastic glasses. The DIY crowd on here should give it some thought and report back any interesting ideas. For example, I'll probably use my glasses as grain scoops or something...

 

[GilaMinumBeer]

"IF" I ever do get mine, They'll either become sample glasses or go to my kids.

Mine came 10 minutes ago

I was thinking along the lines of hop additions. You will be scooping grain forever with these "glasses"

 

[Zenman]

I got mine. I thought the tasting poster/placmat was really bad. Who thought of the questions that "brewers" ask themselves when tasting on the bottom right of the 'placemat'. Some were just so dumb my wife and I couldn't help but laugh and wonder as to the marketing genius that came up with it, because if these are the questions their brewers ask when drinking a beer, well they must be inexperienced idiots. I am sorry but it kind of ruined it all for me. Also the way they treat stouts/porters in their explanations was annoying, who are they kidding. Very condenscending, maybe they were going for a laugh but missed the mark? The bottle opener was nice, glasses are ok, not sure what use I will have for them though. Oh well.

Got mine today, peeled off the killians stickers immediately lol.

There you go--that's a better idea.

 

[conpewter]

I do whole hops so not big enough for most hop additions. I may use them as tasting cups

 

[rico567]

Got mine last week. Opener is decent, plastic glasses are a joke. I would no more taste beer out of plastic glasses than I would serve a chef's salad in a bowl made from a cow turd. Oh, well, more or less worth what it cost.....

 

[Brewpastor]

Plastic glasses? Well that fits with the quality of the promoted product. Well, now if I do not get anything I will not care.

 

[bull8042]

I haven't received crap.

We apologize for the delay. A box of crap is on its way to you as we speak. The brewery dog has been a little under the weather lately, so you will be receiving a "special" box of crap.
Thank you for your support.

 

[GilaMinumBeer]

Got the survey request and still no freebies.

 

[magnj]

How bad would it be to drink out of plastic, I doubt it would really impart any flavor...

 

[StoutFan]

Although they are plastic, for our beer tasting foursome, it splits the bottle nicely.

 

[jonbrout]

What's it been.. a month or more? No goodies for me...

 

[Tenchiro]

I stil have yet to receive anything either, except for the survey request.

 

[MajorTom]

I haven't received anything either. No survey, email, anything. But, after I finding out they were plastic I don't care anyway.

 

[beerthirty]

I received mine about 3 weeks ago. I'm not sure if I agree with the literature, but its nice to have some matching plastic cups.

 

[like2brew]

got mine the other day. threw out all the bull**** literature and hung on to the glasses and key chain . free is free

 

[blefferd]

mine took quite a while to come in the mail. I saw the plastic cups and was like WTF lol kept the key chain and im pretty sure the wife threw out the cups.
