My favorite beer glass

[avidhomebrewer]

Like EricK The Red, I, too, stole a glass about 20 years ago from a pub, a George Killian's Irish Red glass. Back then, that beer was up there in popularity around here. Basically, I like any glass that holds my cold homebrew.

My favorite is the Dogfish head signature glass. I dont have a picture of it currently, but they sell it on their website.

I have lots of stolen glasses too. The stolen glass I like best is a Franziskaner Weissbier glass that my swmbo stole for me cause she is awesome.

Anyone who just read through this and is itching to buy a ton of glassware should check their local goodwill.

I was on a glassware spree and picked up every shape glass I could find. Tulip, pilsner, weiss, various size snifters, pint glasses, goblets. I can't even remember what else.

At .99 cents a glass it is tough to beat. Maybe I got lucky but i even found identical pairs of everything so I don't have any oddballs.

I walked through my local goodwill recently and picked up 8 murphy's stout glasses and a new belgian tulip, along with a couple others, there were more.

This was given to me by the brewmaster at Rock Bottom, pretty cool logo for a beer they brewed up for Halloween

Current go-to-glass is an Appleby's Brewtus glass (23 oz iirc). Asked the waitress if I could buy one when SWMBO and I were on our honeymoon. She said no, went in the back and came out with one wrapped up for us.

How do you get those? i want to make my own but im' finding it pretty much impossible to make something like that. That would last throughout multiple washes

I used bargainmugs.com Send them a logo and they'll put it on a glass for you.

There is a local guy here that makes hop candy. He sells it now, but I am not sure of the company name. Awesome stuff!

That would be me: http://www.facebook.com/groups/262182173800909/

It's not my "go to" glass by any means, but it's definitely unique (and over-priced). It's supposed to be the best beer glass ever, but I find it a bit top-heavy and small. (that's what she said)

I have the 20oz version of these and I really like em.

couple shots of my glasses:

sorry for the washed out background, but you get the gist.

pilsner and a few weizen glasses:

others:

i think the lenox crystal pilsner glasses are my fav... i could drink anything out of those.

That chalice like glass in the left front of the last pic is the kind I tried to describe in an earlier thread. I inherited a whole box of them from pop. Just still lost in the basement. Still searching. But they look just like that one.

Mine helps me make sure I stay fit while drink.

dude, where did you find this????
Im always on the lookout for achouffe stuff, like the gnome statue and such. I searched around CT everywhere for the ommegang/achouffe collaboration beer. I need this glass!!!!!!

my favorite stein. my grandpa passed it on to me, so it's actually really old...

An Erdinger aniversary glass I got in a 5 pack (#6 was the glass) of 0.5 L weiss beer. I tried to buy a glass like this (except not aniversary) from the waitress at a restaurant in Helen, GA while on vacation during Oktoberfest but was denied as they didn't have enough. It took me another year to find Erdinger around where I live near Atlanta and I was really excited to find the pack with the glass included! It may look topheavy but it's not - it feels perfectly balanced.

my fav is the classic glass 'Crown Tankard'

I kinda wanna get the classic liter stein too, but meh...

My favorite glass is my Martin pint glass. Got it with some strings last Xmas. I might get the rocker glass gift set this year

Glass from a Pint Night at a local pub. The Duvel "D" is etched in the bottom for better head retention.

The etched D is not for head retention, it creates bubbles to continually release aroma. Head retention has more to do with your recipe and how clean the glass is.

I've been drinking pretty much everything out of mine since I got it.

This is a big file (40MB) but it shows why the SA glass kicks glass.

Launch the SUNP0139.avi file. You'll see the last glass of my wheat beer, and the bubbles are an absolute torrent coming up from the laser etched stripe on the bottom of the glass.

I also like this glass, I have 1, and if you fill it with Duvel, The head stays right to the end! I love Duvel.

However, I think My belgian Tripel tastes soooo awesome outa this Glass!

But then again, All of my home brews do!!! heheheh

I like the handle. Otherwise, unless you pick it up from the top, you warm it up.
