    Ive seen the the threads over the last few months and posted in a few with little success...would love to make a deal for one. I have a Pretty Things Wine glass I would be willing to trade. And if anyone would like to exchange beer I would also love to do this.

    no one? If it is any consolation I would really like this for in about a month I will be going to VT to pick up some beer and would be interested in how they taste in this.

    My understanding is that 3F is no longer shipping these. They are pretty thin glasses, not in a low quality way, but rather in an art piece / craft kinda way and I think they were getting a fair amount of breakage . . . thank our friends in the shipping companies as they love to try to put our boxes through the uprights hahaha. So these are getting a little hard to come by and as unfortunate as turning to the evil empire as it will be, best bet may be eBay. Best of luck!

    Amazing the brewery cannot ship a glass w/o breakage but the common BA can.......

    Would you rather 3F just jack up the price to all to account for the breakage? They're a business after all and if they don't make at lease some money, bye bye to glasses and or for the sense of being dramatic to the extreme bye bye to a sustainable business plan. In other words bye bye to beer production. I know this is almost to the point of comical of an overstatement, but you get my point.

    My guess is they don't think it's worth having one of their employees busy boxing and wrapping glasses to ship if they're selling well at the pub.

    Store in sommerville...in porter square, Sorry forget the name but I want to say Ball Square Liquors or something to that affect. I can go try to get more in the next few weeks if anyone would like. But it sounds like someone is going to trade me a Teku.

    Thanks guys.

    It took me 90 mins to get there and back on my lunch break one day...haha off hours subway times. I can see myself going back the first weekend in Nov because I am busy next weekend. But I will let you know. Who would think it would take that long to get to a place 4 miles away...damn not having a car.

    I've seen different 3F Teku glasses too. Hand blown glass, may be too nice to actually use.

    I won 2 from ebay the other day. I'll post pics and opinions when they come (although i'm nervous now since people are saying they are delicate and don't ship well)
