    Let's not get into imperial pints, eh? Lol.
    Wyoming Aleworks serves their beers in 16 and 20 ounce nonic glasses. Yay!

    The thick glass and bottom bit seems too greedy, but in general I have nothing to fuss about around here. At The National Folk Festival a few weeks back I was getting 16 oz cans of Two-Hearted for $6, a local old favorite watering hole nearby had 12 oz bottles of Two-Hearted for $5. It was great. My favorite local bar pours big, is generous with samples and I usually have at least one on the house. I don't get around too much, but I've learned where to go.

    This is why I don't go to bars. $5 for a 12oz beer that I can get a six pack of for around $10-12.

    If I go out its only to a place that does not can/bottle or sells beer I can't get any other place.

    Growlers are the same. How WFM has the nerve to sell 64oz growlers for up to 2x the cost of the same beer in a six pack I don't get.

    Enjoy

    Oh, I'll enjoy it just fine. When I do go out- which isn't very often- I thoroughly expect for the places that I do frequent to make fair margin on services for providing the place that I choose. I wouldn't return to any place that I thought was less than honest. Some places I go to provide a real sense of community, and while inexpensive, are priceless and gems that no one will ever forget. By the way, growlers don't make any sense to me, either.

    Yeah, one of the local breweries by me uses glasses that all have the 16 ounce, 8 ounce, etc. line on them. If you order a 16 ounce beer, you get 16 ounces of beer. They use glasses that give you a good amount of beer and head, and that's one of the reasons I go there a lot.

    Which brewery? I'd like to see what the glasses look like. Is this just pints, or do they have goblets, etc?
