Thread: Beer Glassware

I have the same Delirium glass, and it's my favorite one! I usually try to buy a glass if I go to a brewery, and other than I buy glasses at beer stores around here.

You can also find them at specialty beer and wine stores, but they tend to cost $5-10 there instead of $1 at the thrift store. Here is what I have so far, there is nothing like drinking a beer out of the glass that was designed specifically for it:

Yeah I love the variety of Belgian Glassware - you are incredibly lucky to find glasses like that at a thrift store! I've had no luck in those places yet. Some really nice looking glasses - for some reason I really want a couple Chimay chalices as well. That one and the delirium glass are the ones that got me interested in acquiring glassware.

It is definitely a nice glass to drink out of. Now that you mention it, I need to ask my local microbrewery (Paddock Wood) if they have glassware. I'm heading there tomorrow, so I'll ask then.

Delirium Tremens sound like a perfect name for beer glass

These are what we use here: Beer glass from Finnish Iittala glass factory. The name of this model is 'Caliber'. I bought 6 pcs of these about 20+ years ago. I wish i had bought Whiskey glasses of the same series as well; nowadays they are hard and expensive to find. Far too much for my wallet.
