Where can I get good barwhere?
Best beer glasses I ever saw were the crystal Teku glasses you can get off ebay for 40-50$ a pair. I know Three Floyds (FFF) and Lost Abbey have very nice ones.

dont mean to derail the topic but im also looking for glassware, but branded with the brewers names on them. ive found that within toronto, unless you are lucky and find the odd one at value village/goodwill, the only real way is to try to get bars to sell them to you. Does anyone know of any actual stores within the GTA that sell? ive got a collection and looking to add to it. or bars that you know of as well. problem with buying them online is that its super expensive. especially ebay...ridiculous shipping fees.
what breweries are you looking for?dal524 wrote:dont mean to derail the topic but im also looking for glassware, but branded with the brewers names on them. ive found that within toronto, unless you are lucky and find the odd one at value village/goodwill, the only real way is to try to get bars to sell them to you.

Im getting fairly specific now since I have so many haha. Beaus (its about 15-20 bucks to ship a 5 dollar glass from the brewery to GTA). Also a couple from Unibroue (Blanche De Chambly, Fin Du Monde, Maudit). I'll take any tips you have really. Others such as Granville Island and Spearhead come to mind.matt7215 wrote:what breweries are you looking for?dal524 wrote:dont mean to derail the topic but im also looking for glassware, but branded with the brewers names on them. ive found that within toronto, unless you are lucky and find the odd one at value village/goodwill, the only real way is to try to get bars to sell them to you.

It's mentioned earlier in this thread, but Beertown in Cambridge, and Waterloo sell their glasses for $5, with a portion of the proceeds going to the Cambridge Memorial Hospital. I know they have Spearhead for sure.
Beertown Draught List, here's there draught list, I'm pretty sure they have the branded glass for each of these beers. They also have, I think, 4 seasonals that aren't on the menu.
Also, as far as I've heard, they want to open more of these (10+, within the next 2 years) throughout the province. One of the AM's in the Cambridge location is training to become the manager at a future Milton location.

thanks, do they actually not respond to emails or is this auto reply only for reservations? regardless thanks for the heads upKish84 wrote:It's mentioned earlier in this thread, but Beertown in Cambridge, and Waterloo sell their glasses for $5, with a portion of the proceeds going to the Cambridge Memorial Hospital.
