16 oz Pint Glass

A 16 oz clear pint glass with a heavy base, the classic bar-style pint. It is the shape every brewery, taproom and pub already stocks, so a printed one slots into service without anyone thinking about it. That is the opposite of most promotional drinkware, which gets used once and shelved.

Breweries, taprooms and restaurant promos

Breweries and taprooms use it for service and for sale at the bar. Restaurants run pint night promotions with it. Beer festivals give one to every ticket holder, and companies use it for a client happy hour or a brewery-themed gift. A 12-piece minimum, unusually low for glassware, makes it practical for a single bar rather than only a chain.

Printing on clear glass

Decoration is by sublimation or pad print. On clear glass, a single bold color, often white or black, stands out against the beer. Fine detail can get lost once the glass is full, so keep the logo simple. Unit prices are for one position and one color; additional colors and positions are quoted separately. Your free proof shows placement and size, and your artwork stays on file for two years for setup-free reorders.

Nine price breaks, and the first four matter most

• 12 glasses: $8.70 each, $153.40 with the $49 setup
• 24: $7.27 each, $223.48 with setup
• 36: $5.81 each, $258.16 with setup
• 72: $4.56 each, $377.32 with setup, about $5.24 per glass
• 144: $4.29 each, $617.76, setup waived
• 288 to 2,016: $3.84, $3.33, $2.90 and $2.39 each

Moving from 12 to 72 nearly halves the unit price, the steepest early drop in our glassware. At 144 the run clears $500 and the setup goes away. If you need a dozen for a tasting room, price 72 before you commit.

Ten business days, plus breakage

Pint glasses run about 10 business days after proof approval, then ship. Glassware carries an accepted breakage allowance, and bar glass gets broken in normal service, so order a few over your count.

What is the minimum?

12 glasses.

Where does the setup stop?

At 144 glasses, where the run is $617.76.
