Show us your glassware...

[swenocha]

In another thread, I've been accused of having a wide range of glassware. This got me wondering what everyone else had in their barware collection. I used to have a wide range of shaker pint glasses from various breweries, but have in recent years been phasing them out (most have gone to Goodwill) in favor of proper glassware for different styles of beers.

I may swap these photos out later for better pics (maybe the glassware off of the shelves of the butler pantry and on the counter or something), but here goes...

I still have a small shelf of the old shaker pint glasses... I generally kept a few from local breweries (Fat Bottom, Turtle Anarchy, Yazoo, Blackstone) and a brewery or two outside the area (Brooklyn, Abita), and from a couple events I've attended (Science of Beer... though most of the events have switched to taster glasses these days).



I also have a shelf of Sam Adams perfect pints... 8 12oz-ish sized and 2 imperial sized...



I spend a lot of time at Yazoo... either working at events or visiting the taproom. Thus, I have quite a few different tulip pints from them. This shelf also houses a few pilsner glasses, my Disney University mug, and my set of cool looking chalice glassware that I stumbled into at Goodwill...



I attend a lot of beer festivals... mostly working, but always drinking. This shelf contains 12 pilsner style tasters from the 8 years of the Féile Festival I've attended, as well as snifters and other tasters from various tastings around Nashville.



Finally, we have a shelf of labelled tulips, chalices, pilsners and tasters. Let's see... We have a Highland tulip, a Brooklyn tulip, a Dogfish Head willibecher, a Stella chalice, a Pleasure Island pilsner, and some Yazoo and Killian's tasters.



I also have the Spiegelau IPA Glass (which apparently wasn't on the shelf on the day of these pics... it's usually with the glasses in the previous pic... wow, there are a lot of bubbles on the side of the glass. I obviously didn't get it properly cleaned/rinsed for that pour). As I said in the other thread, I was skeptical about this glass, but it really rocks the socks for IPA drinking...



Oh, and I can't forget... DAS BOOT!





While on the glassware topic, I also have a few different growler styles...

I have a few standard Yazoo glass growlers, though I've given most of them away... This one I've got a little starter going in for this weekend's brew session...



Here's the rest of my growler assortment...

Another Yazoo growler in the Yazoo growler koozie/carrier, a brown Sweetwater growler, a 1/4 gallon Sun King bottle growler, the super-cool looking genie-lamp-ish OBX growler, and my double-walled stainless steel Yazoo growler (which gets the most action these days)...




So... what are you guys drinking out of?

Don't know how well this picture will show up. Had the Naked Cat Brewery logo etched on a glass. Turned out pretty good from my end.

I have a decent collection of glassware.

The first is my more specialized or unique glasses. Many of these were gifts.

The second is my more generic collection of pint, pilsner, and wheat glasses.

I've got a set of Beatles glasses, some glasses from a local brewery (NOLA) and a nice Arrogant Bastard glass as well as a number of plain ale glasses with no imprinting on them.

I have a set of those Beatles glasses too. I put them over a couple photos of the Beatles.

[Beer-lord]

I think I got them at Big Lots but can't remember. I think I only paid about $5 for them. Not a bad deal. Just wash them by hand and the imprint will last forever.

[Gymrat]

Some of my most special glasses.



My regular serving glasses are on these shelves



Behind my silly 57th birthday pose you can see my glass collection on the upper shelf. Notice I strategically placed my Beatles glasses above my Beatles pictures

What you can't see is the American Home Brewer Association logo on one of the glasses in front of the beer bottle collection.



Then of course there are my draft beer mugs and my flite glass sets (I have 3 sets)

[Beer-lord]

Do growlers count? 2 of these are glass. I have 2 other glass ones that are in the fridge but are duplicates of the middle and left one. The one one the right is stainless so I guess I broke the rules by showing it.

And a moderator to boot....

We have tons of pint glasses, old world beer glasses, and for some reason, we keep picking them up.
One of these days, I'm going to build a display rack for them all, once I retire that is....

[Gymrat]

I just put up an 8 ft oak plank to display mine. Though now I do need to put another one up on the next wall.

That was my original idea, but with a front railing of some sort. The women in the house have a habit of slamming doors, even when they are not pissed off.

Good Idea Mine is in the basement so it really doesn't get shook any. I have had it up a few years with no issues.

What? Are you freakin' kidding me? Show us your ass bare? REALLY? You're not even Inkleg!

(discussion heard in background... - "Glassware, not ass bare.")



Too lazy to move them. The Michigan ones we had made. Regular heavy beer mugs, then some tall glasses that break too easy. Speaking of breaking, our college collection got destroyed a few years after college when a rental unit cabinet shelf collapsed (plastic support pins), destroying much of our "shot glass snuck out in my pants" glasses and pint glasses.

Many of the ceramic ones were made by my wife's aunt for me, I don't use them. Glasses with color on them are from Germany I think (gift) and the Bermuda mug was from my son when he visited there.

Somewhere is a pewter one that I used to use, put it in freezer, then beer stays cold.
