Question: was there a 2016 Prop Day glass?

Nope

Binny's was definitely giving out Black Friday glasses to the first X in line. I saw a pic somewhere... but it's not on Binny's page or under the Binny's hash on Insta.

Intelligentsia already has this year's mugs online:

EDIT: Nevermind, that is the 2016 mug

EDIT2: If you want I can roll by Intelligentsia on Monday on my way to work and look.

Here’s the back of this year’s glass. Got it at one of the Jewel event stores.

Bangin’ right out the gate

I agree. I'd pay $10 for one but my days of throwing money at glasses is nearly over (remembers what I just spent on some dG glassware!)

“Took one for the team” and swung into Intelligentsia on my way into work. No Black Cat mugs in store, so I guess they did not make any this year.

My source says they should arrive in time for Christmas but they took awhile because in honor of Black Cat the mug is in the shape of Janet Jackson circa big hair days.

Not srs

I don’t need anymore beer mugs. Especially not any more Goose Beer mugs. But I really like the Black cat logo and the diner mug shape that intelligentsia has been using.

This is the same snifter they included in the goodie bag for the Clybourn Black Friday tastings.

If there's something unique and quality, I don't mind the money (those DeGarde glasses for example), but to keep raising the price on essentially the same exact glass they've used since 2013 is lame.

got this free this year's black friday. really simple, but something about it I really dig

Some interested mini-snifters I can't find any info on, presumably pre-buyout one-off promos.

Correct me if I’m wrong but I think those were promotional glasses for bar events a year or two ago.

GI didn’t start using “Since 1992” in their marketing until they switched to the 500ml bottles in 2015.

I don’t believe GI did promotional glassware for BCBS pre-buyout unless it was the mini nonic for the Black Friday brew pub tasting. Post-buy 2012-beyond they went promotional glassware crazy. They were releasing a new Snifter/taster/glass every month or two for their specific one-off tap only beers. I went to a few events in 2012/13 and collected my fair share of glasses/shirts/posters. GI went nuts with that big beer marketing money.

You're probably right! I've never seen these before, so I wasn't sure. Have any one-offs not posted yet?

Another one-off variant with brown text.
