Periodic Beer Glass

Product Description

Better brewing through chemistry. We're going to bet that you are currently not drinking beer because you're at work and casual imbibing is frowned upon in your office. There, there. It's going to be okay. You know, we have job openings. Just sayin'. You know what makes us feel better? Learnin' stuff. So let's get to it. Despite what this glass suggests, your beer should not contain either beryllium or erbium. If it does, you need to seriously consider switching to another brewer. Carlsberg Brewery was the location of Sorensen's work on the pH scale. "Skunked" beer is more properly termed "light-struck." When UV light hits beer, it kicks off a chemical reaction, breaking down the isohumulones and creating 3-methyl-2-butene-1-thiol. It's an organosulfur compound, the same thing a skunk sprays. Good for scaring off predators. Bad for beer. Beryllium and Erbium printed with their atomic properties in a 16 oz. pint glass.

Printing faded after several dish wash cycles

Clever and cool design, however printed graphics have faded after several washings. (compare vendor's image with exhibit A attached) I know other reviews covered this, but some also contradicted the issue entirely.

I strongly recommend hand washing.

Really neat glass BUT ink won't last

What a cool glass. Bought a couple as gifts (on Amazon).

BE WARNED: the ink will come off after a few washes, and the dishwasher makes it worse.

Bummed that the seller never returned my msg about the glass. Now I have two glasses w/ "dirty marks" :(

If you don't ever use them they are pretty good. The graphics are just some kind of paint and as other have wrote, you can't put them in the dishwasher or else the graphics fade away.(one of the two I received actually had a long line through the graphic were the paint had shrunk away or something). They have to be hand washed and even then with use the graphic will start to come off. Last year there were ones offered that were etched. It was harder to read but they are pretty permanent.

Can't we make anything in the US anymore???

Meh.

The logo is not as dark as the photo indicated and looks as it was made with an inkjet printer. Also, the logo faded with a few washes. I hand-washed the glass with a non-abrasive sponge and Dawn (the same soap used for cleaning oil off baby seals), and half of the logo is gone, so it looks like I'm a huge fan of beryllium. And, I don't have the heart to make it a clear pint glass.

Don't bother - truely only a novelty.

Loved this glass when I got it, but like others, the lettering quickly disappeared so I now have a clear pint glass and that isn't so fun. Novelty has its roots in meaning "new" which is the only time this glass is interesting - then it is nothing.

Poorly made....you will be disappointed if you buy. Cute idea though.

Sadly, while this is a fun gift, the printing on the glass does disappear as others reported after a few washings and you are left with a plain glass. It is just poorly made and not worth buying. Fun gift for my beer-loving son. I even found a shirt that matched it!

Gets noticed

I post a lot of beer pics on Google+ and Untappd and most people who see this pint glass love it. Especially those who are science savvy or just nerds in general (i was trying to be PC, but ah well). I am not a nerd, but I think this glass is awesome. I'd buy again.

My boyfriend is a massive nerd, and a big lover of The Big Bang Theory...so, I got him this for Christmas and I'm sure he'll love it. It's very creative, and we both love science, so, I can't wait to give it to him.

Bought this as a Christmas present for my boyfriend. Item arrived as described and he loved it. We use the glass often and it's survived a few drops, tip overs and multiple trips through the dishwasher unscathed with no chipping or fading of the design
