Tulip Glass question

Try Reidel. Fairly nice glasses.

 

I gave a bunch of these out as Christmas presents. Hard to beat for a dollar a piece.

Simon Pearce Large Essex Tulip. It’s made by artisans in VT making a good days pay w/ benefits vs Far East slave labor for most other tulips - so it will cost you a few bucks. But look at those curves — sexy as hell and built to last the pending Armageddon.

 

I got this one at the store itself so I didnt have to pay shipping. They also sold them in 4 packs pretty cheap. Last time I went there they didnt have anymore though. On Amazon the same glass costs a lot more for some reason.

When I bought one of these 5 years ago it was only 13.5 oz which obviously falls a little short so I hardly used it. When I lifted one up to examine not too long ago I could have sworn it looks bigger and it appears that it is. Looks like its 15 oz now.

 

I love the above Simon Pearce glass, hell you might even try Amazon, they have about everything.

 

I think you could easily get the gold Duvel print off with some acetone. I have a few, the dishwasher and years of cleaning have peeled off some of the paint. Acetone would probably wipe that right off is my guess. Sorry, but I can't experiment!

Be aware that Duvel glasses are quite a bit larger than a typical tulip style. The glass is unique to Duvel and the Belgian Golden style, invented by Moortgaat. They produced an absurd beer with an absurd rocky head and the absurdly large glass was needed to present the beer.

Though I imagine knock off Mega Tulips are available I would double check the capacity.

Cheers.

 

That is pretty, but I think it's more than I pay for the Waterford brandy snifters I use. And those are decent crystal.

One of my most desired glasses in the world. But, I’d be heartbroken when I broke it, because that’s what I do. Not careless but I a bit clumsy with glass. If it’s crystal it won’t last a year, I buy Libby because they’re thicker and resists my attempts to break them.

 

Strictly speaking, that glass isn't a tulip. It's a snulip (combination of snifter and tulip), also referred to as a belgian ale glass. I prefer this style myself, and have a number of them.

OMG - we're re-enacting the infamous "Tulip vs. Snulip vs. Snifter" thread from 2016!!!

 

go to your local restaurant supply house.

 

Might try replacements unlimited too, they do about everything as well.

 

Try Ikea. Their selection can vary a lot, though. We got 6 tulips and 6 other plain weissbeir types for not very much.

You can also get a nice shelf you can put together to put them all on.

 

If there were ever a fetish my wife and I were into, it's glassware from IKEA. House full of that junk.

Not sure if that makes us vanilla or extreme deviants though.
What the hell, it's for beer.
Cheers.

 

They beat the hell out of Teku glasses. Weak as water the Teku is.

 

Ugly they are. And, from looking in the mirror every day, I KNOW ugly when I see it.
