    Great deal, thanks for the heads up. Got myself a set of the 16oz ones.

    I have a 16oz glass and it is hands down my favorite.

    Absolutely, these are outstanding glasses! It's absolutely my favorite beer glass.
    Great charity causes as well.

    I wonder how many of the 12 oz they sell compared to the 16 oz. Seems like everyone would go for the extra headroom for the same price and it wouldn't be worthwhile to even offer the 12 oz, or am I overlooking a scenario where the 12 oz would be better?

    I actually like the 12 oz. glasses better as they are more versatile. Using two 16 oz. glasses to split a bomber leaves too much air space in both glasses. If you're drinking the bomber yourself, you can't fit all of it in the 16 oz. glass, so you're going to be making multiple pours anyway.
