Glassware white whales

[northernbrews]

Anyone have a pic of this Expedition Stout glass?

 

[JulianB1]

Oh man, that's just about the sexiest glass ever.

 

[kevanb]

Finally a decent photo of it

 

[Frank1]

That's a sexy ****in lineup right there...

Also, welcome! I have a box to pack for you

 

[Trady]

Shiiiiitttt.....



ISO that Expy glass big time. That, and the goddamn Bell's cervoise.....

 

[acurtis]

The HF Willi Becher style glass is apparently a GlassWale

Winooski Bev had these on the shelf the last 10 times I were there. Been a few months since the last time I was there.

 

[JulianB1]

What's the story with the Expedition glass? Date released, etc.

On and bigtime ISO in case that wasn't obvious but I doubt I have the ammo to land it.

 

[northernbrews]

Not sure on the exact dates it was available but guessing early to mid 2000's. I remember seeing it on the Bell's website way back in the day and not pulling the trigger Lucked into a set of them on ebay 5/7 years ago. It's the 1 glass in my collection that I don't think I'll ever trade.

Never saw one traded and only saw one included in a glass BIF a year or two ago.

Yeah, the 5-6 of those I have in my cabinet insist that they are not Whaley at all

Those definitely aren't white whales, but they stopped making them for a long, long time. I'm sad that I sent both of mine away, figuring I'd just get more. Oh well.

 

[ChugLife]

These are all whales?

 

[Tyrsis]

I am not even in to collecting glassware, but I want that Wavy Hitachino glass so damned bad. My friend is teaching English in Japan, and I told him that if he ever saw it, to acquire it through any means necessary. Where did that glass even come from?

 

[Brewgulper]

Wish I hadn't broke my Bell's cervoise awhile back

ohhh man..... not good

 

[DigDug1810]

is the bell's glass on the far right very rare? What would it take to acquire one?

It's an older Bell's glass (think it was released around 2006 or 2007). Pretty sure it was the one that came out after the Expediton glass. I'm not sure on the rarity but being pretty old I would think it would take a somewhat limited/older glass to acquire one.

 

[JulianB1]

A few of the Expedition glasses have surfaced in one of the more, let's say "lively", Facebook glassware groups. One of them moved for an undisclosed but presumably large chunk of change.

Like $500. Same with the old school Kentucky Breakfast Stout glass.

 

[user 306926]

I was offered the Expy glass for $300 recently.

I started this thread but I don't remember why I cared.

 

[JulianB1]

Hah, just realized I posted this in the wrong thread, meant to go in the properglassware thread. That's what I get posting from mobile while drinking I suppose.

I guess this is a glass "whale" in a literal sense. More grey/silver than white though...
