Rock Beer Gear

DESIGN – Our eye-catching, original, hand drawn designs made with love and passion are here to elevate your drinking experience and spark a conversation with your fellow lovers of bear and great music, whether it’s at your home party or at your favourite dive bar. Our glasses also make for a great surprise for your friends and family as a unique and stylish present that reflects their passion.

NUCLEATION – At the bottom of the glasses you will find our logo that is laser etched into it by a technique called nucleation. It accelerates carbonation, making your beer to create more bubbles, which allows it to stay fresher longer. At the same time, it helps to release aromas and flavors, and promotes head retention!

NORTH AMERICAN QUALITY AND DURABILITY – Not only that our glasses are visually stunning but are also made to last. Top rack dishwasher safe, glasses are made in Mexico and the prints are done in Canada with a highly effective and reliable, completely green printing process/technique. High quality direct screen imprints stand up to the rigorous food service environment and withstand even harsh industrial dishwashers for many cycles. The prints won’t fade or peel after multiple washes.

DIMENSIONS & MEASUREMENTS – Our bar quality pint glasses are sturdy with heavy weighted bottom and stand at 6 3/4 inches tall (17.2 cm) with the top diameter of 3 11/16 inches (9.3 cm). Each glass weighs 1.25 lbs (1 lb 4 oz) or 570 grams.

These glasses strike the perfect balance between functionality and style. They hold 20 oz (US fluid oz) / 592 ml of liquid when filled to the brim (which may be of interest to some UK consumers). Assuming you want some head on your beer – the glasses will comfortably hold the following properly poured volumes of beer (with enough room left for a nice head):

• Standard US tall can (US pint) – 16 US fluid oz (473 ml)
• Standard German, Czech and the vast majority of European tall cans – 16.9 US fluid oz (17.6 Imperial fluid oz / 500 ml)
• Imperial pint (standard in UK, Australia and Canada) – 19.2 US fluid oz (20 Imperial fluid oz / 568 ml)

HEALTH AND SAFETY – Our glasses meet all applicable standards – they are lead free, PFAS free, non-toxic, non-radioactive and are safe for food contact. They do not contain any Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) – no measurable amounts of either element are found migrating from the glassware.

HANDLING AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Failure to review your product’s care and handling instructions may result in breakage of the product and/or personal injury. It is important to note the following features of your glasses as well as tips for handling them.

These glasses are manufactured for the purpose of holding cold beverages. Avoid extreme temperature changes of the glasses. Transitioning from one temperature extreme to the next may cause stress to the glassware and risk breakage from thermal shock. They are rated for a regulated, controlled temperature change of 75.6 °F (42 °C). Sudden and rapid temperature changes of more than 75.6 °F (42 °C) are to be avoided as breakage can occur due to thermal shock. To avoid this:

• Ensure the glasses are at room temperature prior to use.
• Do not store or place the glassware in a glass chiller, freezer, or fridge.
• Allow glasses to reach room temperature before washing.
• Ensure proper washing temperatures. Allow sufficient cooling time. The base always cools off slower than the body of the glass.
• Never pour cold beverage into a hot/warm glass and/or into a glass directly out of the dishwasher, still warm from rinsing or a dishwashing cycle.
• Do not use the glasses for sous vide cooking. Glasses are not safe for the microwave.
• Use a glass rack or store on trays.

Frequent causes of glassware breakage are mechanical impact and result of impact against other objects including (but not limited to) other glassware, loading and unloading of dishwasher, cutlery dropped in glassware, draft beer taps, and sinks. It is thus important to handle the glasses properly to prevent mechanical shock, which is a minute abrasion in the glass that causes weakness and makes it more susceptible to breakage from impact or thermal shock. To avoid this:

• Do not put flatware/cutlery into the glasses.
• Do not strike flatware against the glasses.
• Do not pick a glass by the rim. Do not carry multiple glasses at the same time by the rims. Do lift and carry the glasses by the bottoms or sides.
• Never smash or stack the glasses.
• Do not hit the glasses against hard objects.
• Do not drop the glasses.
• Do handle glassware gently (remove abraded, cracked or chipped glassware from use).

And, to insure your full olfactory enjoyment:

• Never use beer glasses for any other beverages.
• Never hold glassware in bouquets because the oil from your fingers will cling to the inside.
• Never stack glasses as this can cause scratches and oily residue on the outside of the glass.

Rock Beer Gear will not accept responsibility for breakage due to thermal shock, or breakage caused by improper handling of glasses by the consumer.
