    I just saw @Roguer post a WBAYDN with a funny AF glass (Shut up liver, you’re fine). That made me wonder what awesome glassware is out there that BAs use for their daily drinkers. I don’t have anything stellar, like a unicorn mug I saw out there today (that might have been @GreenBayBA), but I enjoy a good glass.

    In any event, if this a repeat or dull, I’m sure a mod will duly put it into beer limbo.

    My daily go-to: area code branded tulip...currently housing a 2019 DFH WWS.

    My favorites are my Jester King Snörkel snulip (tulip/snifter crossbreed) and my Simon Pearce 19+ ounce gigundo tulip. The Snörkel was my go-to until I got the Simon Pearce a few weeks ago. My next acquisition is the Simon Pearce Stout Glass, shown last. Not shown is a KBBS glass that is waiting for me to land some KBBS.

    That Adina is a beautiful piece of glassware.

    Indeed. They thought they could hide it on a shelf behind a bunch of cheap wine glasses, but I spotted it from the next aisle over. They apparently had no idea who they were dealing with. :sunglasses:

    I’m a glass freak, and that’s a tier one glass. I’m sure it was designed to be a red wine glass, but they also make extraordinary beer glasses.

    I hate teku's on an aesthetic view, but, damn, they are a nice drinking vessel.

    In that line they make red wine glasses and champagne glasses. That looks like the red wine glass, especially for a buck, he’ll it was free.

    The wine glasses in the Adina Prestige series have more pronounced curves than the beer tulip. Regardless, I would've bought every Spiegelau they had at a buck each.

    Alas, there was only the one. I haven't seen another since. :slight_frown:

    Everytime someone posts a glass thread, I post this. My absolute favorite glass of all time.

    Forgot about this glass! When I first moved to NYC there was one of these in the AirBnB I lived in for a couple months and I loved using it. New Year's Eve's Eve treat-yo-self gifts are normal, right?

    They are, go get one....if you can find one. Back when I bought this I think they came in 2 packs....so I have a spare. Winning!

    Another glassware fanatic here, I have a decent collection (although nothing compared to some I’ve seen in the hundreds). I probably have something like 40 all told? My avatar is a glass from a bar in Seattle (where my brother lives).
    When our son Charlie was born I asked him to
    Send me two of these glasses and they are my wife’s go to drinker and one of her most cherished gifts.

    anyway I just got back from a trip to Montreal and limited myself to ONE new glass (I did just shatter my district 96 tulip a few weeks ago so....). This unusual take on a teku from BreWsky Brasserie Artisanale (great spot) is fantastic. It’s 17oz and very heavy and sturdily constructed:

    RIP District 96 tulip, ye shall soon be replaced:

    I didn’t realize that was a Jester King squid/octopus. Those are all super looking glasses.

    I had a nice set of Spiegelau, but our weird shaped Corian sink beat them to hell and they all broke. Even my lowly tulip bears a small chip in the rim. For a plastic sink, it’s a motherf*cker.
