    Am looking for a Hoegaarden glass (like this) and regret not buying one while in Brussels.. anyone know where i could get one online?

    Preferably an Irish store that will accept Laser but open to any links besides this.

    Have a look on ebay.

    A few links there with get you 2 for around €15 inc P&P.

    Might get some myself actually. Tesco have only recently started getting in (near me anyway) and I've become a bit too fond of it

    Not overly useful at the moment, as they don't have any listed, but you could check here. They invite suggestions via email so might be worth a go.

    They look nice

    I always find the best way is to sneak one out of a pub, I haven't tried it with an Erdinger glass yet though :p

    I did. Broke in my bag 5 minutes after leaving the pub. They're very fragile!

    I found putting a newspaper between the 2 I took a great help and got 2 of them home without a scratch ;)

    Have you seen the world cup edition Erdinger glasses? They are the business!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,986 ✭✭✭✭mikemac


    Have you no shame?
    Honestly-robbing glasses out of a pub

    Once,we got got loads of glasses from different reps into our bar
    Beautiful Tipperary Water glasses, Cork dry gin glasses and those frosted Smirnoff Ice glasses. I set them all up in different sections of the bar and told all the staff to match the glass to the drink.

    All of them gone before the weekend was over.

    This was a 4 star hotel average profile of customer was 30 years old plus.
    Not some rough bar

    As the sign in our local says, if you want glasses go to an opticians, don't rob ours.

    Sorry, rant over

    So they didn't cost you anything? ;)

    Of course they don't, the brewery gives them out for free, its a form of advertising for them.
    The bars dont give a flying f*ck anyways, they'll charge the arse off you for a drink anyway.

    My house in Sligo is full of them, they make up practically all our glasses. :)

    Got 2 in the same day/night from 2 different pubs.
    Not very practical though. my favourite is my stella glass with the logo sticking out.not really sure the word to describe it
