    Hey all, I'm new to BA and was wondering: Where do you all recommend for logo glasses? I have a few glasses at home I drink from but I'm looking to get some stuff with my favorite breweries on them. Purely an aesthetic thing but I love the stuff. I visit pint nights at local bars some times and take home glasses then, but I'm looking to expand my collection quickly.

    Anyone have a recommended place? I'm in the Cincinnati area, but I will gladly shop online as well. Thanks!

    Most breweries will offer glassware on their website store. If you order direct from them you will also be supporting their business and not a middleman.

    Every Wednesday night there are 3-4 bars in Austin that have "buy the beer, keep the glass" nights. Over time, I'm pretty sure I'll be able to get whatever I want (I'm already running out of glassware space!). Check around and see if there are places near you that do this regularly - its a fun way to collect while also getting to drink!

    Thanks all! Truebeer looks great, but I dig what UCLABrew is saying too. Heading to my first pint night tonight - the prize is a Left Hand Brewing glass, filled with delicious 400 Pound Monkey.

    I know my local binnys carries a nice selection of logo glassware. I have gotten some really cool ones there.

    Is it bad to say eBay, even if it's just for glassware?

    Also, abstracting what oreo said above, I'm always surprised by the selection of glassware some of my off the wall local places have.

    Not at all. Ebay is a GREAT place to buy obscure glassware. Cheaper than the sites across the pond too!

    Right, beer planet, etre, etc work well if you're already ordering a box of bottles, but just to find glassware...not feasible.

    As a collector of pint glasses for years now can say . I have gotten them from many sources,bars,Ebay, trades, direct from Breweries.. My holy grail is an Anchor 1995 OSA etched pint . Anyone who can get me one of those can name their prize !!!
    I do have a Alaskan Smoked Porter glass that was NEVER available except from the brewery it is truly spectacular

    Thanks all. I'm going to have a look at my local Party Source tonight on my way to the bowling alley. I don't normally stop there but it's on the way to bowling so I have to! They usually have a decent selection. Hopefully they'll have gotten some Sixpoint stuff in too by now.
