Now this is cool. A fellow named Nick Paul in Chicago takes empty beer bottles, heats them up, expands the neck, and creates drinking glasses out of them. Think of the awesomeness of using a bottle with a painted label, like Rolling Rock, or something from Stone Brewing.
Not only are the bottles recycled into a new use, but what beer lover wouldn’t love these? I know I would. (hint, hint)
There are also non-beery options, like IBC root beer and Stewarts soda.
They run $10 a glass and you can only get the matching basket if you order a six-pack. And, obviously, they need to be able to get the bottles in Chicago. (No, I don’t know if they’ll over a discount if you send them the bottles, full or otherwise.)
