    Hm, wonder if they have any fresh batches of King Sue to go along with those.

    That is a new logo on those Assassin tekus, compared to the first batch.

    They seem to still be available, Just Ordered mine at 4:15, everything went through and received a confirmation.... unless I get an e-mail saying otherwise.

    I don't collect glassware so I have no idea but $12 for a glass seems excessive, no?

    I think that may be a subjective question. Yes, I have some serviceable $1 Ikea "Tulips," but I really like my $10 three Floyds Teku. I also have a JK high stem which I hardly use, but gall darnit have one ! They are fun to have, and ultimately will break,( RIP 2 DFH IPA glasses, 2 darkness goblets, Dangerous Man ... my list goes on)... I'm sure I've spent $12 on worse things.

    Does it make the beer taste better, probably not... But MAYBE

    Did a bit more research, these are expensive to print. I recant my statement.

    Was that Assassin one printed using ComicSans? That looks goofy as heck.

    The premature mortality rate of those DFH IPA glasses has to be like >75%. Cool glasses, but the breakage stories on these are endless.

    FWIW, I used to be a teku hater, mostly based on price/pretentiousness, but I've been using one lately and find myself quite liking it. Not sure it makes it tastes better or not, but I dig stemmed glassware for beer and the shape is nice to look at it.

    With shipping it is cheaper than the BCS glass...

    Bcs glass was 24 or so after shipping. No thanks. I'd rather buy a glass for a beer I'll never own than spend that much for a bcs glass. Ill just fill my assassin teku with bcs and pretend or something

    My teku glass arrived today and unfortunately the glass didn't survive the trip. It's a beautiful glass though. Hopefully I'll have a replacement glass soon.

    Ouch. Sorry to hear that. My Assassin glass came in Saturday, luckily it's in fine working order.
