    I was just reading a thread about the glassware that people use. It had quite a few responses and good conversation. It got me thinking - I would definitely drop some cash to get a nice "Beeradvocate" branded tulip - or other glassware.

    I thought maybe if there was enough chatter about it that it might get green lighted. Or not. One of those. Would you buy Beeradvocate branded glassware?

    I have enough glassware. In fact, I pretty much use my Sixpoint goblet for just about every beer I drink.

    I never order beer-related things online. I only buy glasses from favorite breweries or if they come in gift boxes (Weihenstephaner Weizen glass, couple goblets from St. Bernardus and Chimay). I would be tempted though.

    I'm honestly surprised that there isn't an active Beer Advocate store online, seems like it would be very popular. I would have bought a BA t-shirt years ago had they still been available online.

    If it's a stem, yes. I have enough pint glasses already.

    We'll have a store up within two weeks. T-shirts to start ... other items to follow. No glassware though.

    To be honest im actually surprised there isn't already some made. This site should have a little merch link for shirts, hoodie, bottle openers, and glassware. Even non-ba's would buy, but then you would have a bunch of people claiming ba status that arent ba's and would have to get their ass's clapped homie! Not sure how my fellow ba's would feel about that. I say screw it though, why not? It won't lose money.

    We won't be doing glassware, that is one collectable we won't get into.

    If you are serious about glassware then go here:

    I use them for all of my beer reviewing.

    I probably wouldn't buy BA glassware, because I tend to fall into I have enough category. But I'll never say never.

    But Tee Shirts? most definitely!

    Like others here, I've often wondered why BA branded gear wasn't for sale.

    I'm glad to see the wait is almost over. I'm sure the store will be successful.

    We used to have a store, became overwhelming / did not have the proper logistics to handle it. We'd sell a fair amount of shirts at our fests though I am glad the online store is coming back.

    Simonpearce.com. Amazing glassware from quechee vt. Built to last the Armageddon. Not cheap -- but when you are spending $18 for a growler and $12 for a 22oz bottle of beer -- does it really matter that the glass coat $55? This giant tulip hold a full 24 oz and is just gorgeous. Look at her-- isn't she amazing?

    I'm sure you have much more business savy than me, but couldn't you license your name for glassware purposes? I'm not trying to stir the pot, it is merely a suggestion for some extra cash flow.

    Love the website but don't like the logo at all. I want cool stuff on my glassware, like a warlock punching a dragon or a gorilla driving a dune buggy. Spice it up a bit

    Can the gorilla and warlock do battle on the back of the dragon while it's breathing fire on something? I'd buy that...
