    Fiddlehead uses these and I really like the feel on the lips.

    You'll also need some sandpaper unless you like cutting your lips every time you take a sip. Using a simple glass cutter is a lot easier and more precise than lighting string on fire.

    I actually bought a 2 or 4 pc set of Pabst Blue Ribbon ones from Walmart i think it was. They were marked down on clearance, but loved using them when i didn't wanna drink out of the bottle lol.

    I've got a couple of them...love the look and the feel. They are not practical for storage purposes, as they don't stack like shakers, but they are cool and aesthetically pleasing.

    They are thin. I don't know if it's just me, I'm a pretty big dude, but I felt like the glass was gonna break in my hand. Count me in the "do not like" crowd. The bar I play darts at got All Day IPA on tap recently and I'm assuming they got an allotment of these glasses. It's not a "craft" beer bar, so I was surprised but before I was done with my first, I wasn't a fan. Give me a nonic or imperial pint glass every day of the week.

    Depends. The one I have from Right Brain is pretty heavy duty, thick glass. Anderson Valley is a bit on the thinner side.

    I have one and like it. The shape seems to have nice aroma retaining capabilities and the lip can add some extra sparkle on the tongue. It's similar in body thickness to a British imperial, and I kind of prefer the grasp and feel over the standard issue domestic pint glass

    I've often wondered why somebody doesn't develop a nearly completely removable lid on cans.

    If it doesn't have a metallic taste, it is not true to the genuine can experience! :grinning:
