Where to get stein glass?

Jimmy Bottlehead

Just wondering if there's anywhere in Ireland I could pick up a pair of stein glasses?

Checking before I toddle off to Amazon for them

Dealz might have them the odd time.

But check out the shop called All Rooms, it's beside the side entrance to M&S on Liffey Street, you might get one in there. It says "Kitchenware" but they usually have a selection of glassware and all kinds of weird stuff.

saw them in dunnes a while back .. on special offer with a 1l can of Eichberg or something.

by the way, ive a heap of them but they are the stupidist things ever as you never use them as unbottling beer 1L at a time is just daft.

I have some 0.5L versions of them and they are good, and because they are real heavy glass if you freeze them they are great for a frosty beer on a hot summers day !

IKEA have 600ml handled glasses, no nobbley sides though.

I saw some tankard/stein type glasses in Aldi last year or the year before and I got a few but I haven't seen any since.

Dunnes have them as previously mentioned. Comes with a beer called eichbaum, costs €7.

never heard of it, but its seemingly a popular beer in Mannheim and when it hit difficulties in the 90s the SAP millionaire owner Dietmar Hopp stepped in and saved it.
like a lot of beers in Germany, you'd not see it beyond the immediate locality.

That of course rises the important question, does Mr Hopps Bundesliga football club Hoffenheim serve his beer, but aparantly they dont and serve Bitburger instead - and at €3.20 for 0.4L at a fairly reasonable cost (did I hear beer is €6.50 or €7 at irish music festivals nowadays??).

appolgies for the tangent, but if you have an irrational need for a knobbly beer glass, then you'd understand my irrational need to research beer trivia

All I know about them is that they also make perlenbacher and a few other cheap and watery beers for supermarkets.

+1, I was wondering if the OP wanted them for show, or has he drank from them before.

I was at the munich beef fest many years ago and was disappointed that I could not get a pint in any place I was in.

Dealz have these tankards likes like less than a pint

On a kind of a similar topic, anywhere in Dublin where you can buy Nucleated beer glasses, preferably chalice type, half pint, like the Stella ones?

There are several stella ones in my house, they must be free with bottles or something, definitely not swiped from pubs anyway.

A few euro in the barman's tip jar if usually enough for them to turn a blind eye to pilfering if you have a guilty conscience.

Brendan Bendar

Thanks to all for the replies, appreciate the response.

Think the " few euro in the tip jar" might be the option.

Thanks again.

If you're near it Blackrock Cellar have a range of branded glassware. But I couldn't say for certain if they have the type you're looking for.

I presume what you're looking for is a Maß/Mass, the one litre glass from Bavaria, rather than the old-fashioned stoneware beer stein?
