Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Libbey 4-Piece Heidelberg Beer Mug Set
Customer Review: Excellent heavy mugs, one stupid problem
Summary: 2 Stars
These mugs weigh a kilogram each. The specific heat of glass is about 1/5 that of water, so if your beer comes out of the fridge at 3 degrees and these mugs come out of your freezer at -15 degrees, they'll easily get everything down to about 0, maybe freeze a tiny bit of beer around the rim, and keep the whole concoction nice and cold for at least a little while. Yum!
They hold 16oz, technically. What that means is that they actually hold a 12oz beer with a little room for head and for not spilling it when you pick it up. Perfect. Don't expect to get 16oz of anything into them without a reverse meniscus.
The one stupid problem: the bottom is concave. If you put them in the dishwasher, the bottom collects a rather large quantity (about 2oz) of water-and-food-bits. This has nothing to do with the quality of your dishwasher. You just have to manually flip them over, rinse the food-and-water out of the bottoms, drain them top and bottom, and then they will dry. Given that dishwashers have been around for well over a century, I'm taking off 3 stars not because this bug is a showstopper but because it would have been so easy for them to fix: there's really no possible excuse for such a stupid design flaw.
Other than that, nice mugs.
Description of Libbey 4-Piece Heidelberg Beer Mug Set
Serve cool & refreshing beverages in this set of 4 beer mugs made of clear glass.Holding 16 ounces each, these heavy mugs are shaped for serving beer in traditional style. They're made of thick glass, so you can frost them in the freezer and then use them to keep beer cold to the last swig. Though the mugs' insides are perfectly round, the exteriors have 10 facets. Perfect for root beer floats as well as beer, the mugs measure 9-1/8 inches high and 3-3/8 inches in diameter. They're durable and dishwasher-safe. --Fred Brack
