Product Description
Great for iced tea and other beverages / 13 Oounce Capacity / Clear, double-wall glass / Set of 2
Amazon.com Review
Combining modern materials and clever styling, Bodum's Assam drinkware brings a truly innovative look to the table. The walls of each vessel are actually two layers of clear glass, creating an optical illusion that the liquid is suspended within. Highlighting the dramatic effect, the Assam shape features slightly concave sides that flare out as they reach the smooth, round rim. This set of two double wall cooler/beer glasses serves frosty ales or hot toddies with equal ease. Crafted from borosilicate glass, which is also used to make scientific lab equipment, the pair is exceptionally strong, lightweight, and thermal. The two-layer construction also resists heat and prevents condensation, so no matter what temperature the beverage is, the glasses remain comfortable to hold and safe for any tabletop. Winner of the prestigious European IF Design Award, this 13-ounce, scratch-resistant set goes safely into the dishwasher and microwave. Mix and match Assam with the Pavina and Canteen lines for a variety of fun shapes. --Kara Karll Editor's Note: Because the glasses are mouth blown, each one may have slight variations in height, thickness, and weight. Bodum recommends using care when placing ice into the glass to avoid fracturing the inner layer. Do not use metal spoons or place the glass into a crowded dishwasher.

 Keep beer cold and surprisingly good-looking too January 2, 2009
I bought these for my husband. He's a draft beer lover and I got them for him to use with his beloved Heineken mini-kegs. My thinking was that their ability to keep the beer cold would be a big plus. Now that we are using them, I have to say that's only one of the pluses. They definitely keep liquids as cold as when they go in. Beer doesn't lose its head as fast as in other glasses and it tastes great to the last drop because it is so cold. But there's more we have found we like about these glasses. For one thing, they weigh so little. A typical beer glass is made of much heavier, thicker glass, which sounds great until you lift it over and over. It's surprising what a more pleasant experience it is to lift such a light glass! Never really thought about it before now, but it makes a difference. Also, these glasses are beautiful. The space between the two walls is almost sculptural and the sloping shape is pretty to look at. Last, we have found that we really like the size. So many beer glasses are so tall, and these aren't. They hold 12 ounces, which is plenty for a serving -- who needs to have 20 ounces of beer all at once? These fit in our dishwasher and just really work for our needs.
Great cups, excellent insulation December 14, 2008
These cups are amazing. You can put scalding hot or ice cold beverages in them and your hands will not feel a thing. They are well constructed. Each one is mouth blown, so minor differences between each might exist, but it gives each a unique character. The walls are thin, so they are prone to scratching and can be easily broken. However, the overall feel and great insulation more than make up for the negative aspects, and allow me to easily give these a 5 star rating anyways. They hold 12 oz., so a can of soda or beer fits in well, but without any room for extra foam.
 Bodum Assam Double-Wall Beer Glasses Review November 27, 2008
My husband is a beer drinker and this is by far his preferred glass. Our only problem is that they're a bit fragile, but they're well-worth the special handling. We do put them in the dishwasher.
These glasses are AWESOME!! November 22, 2008
I had gotten these for my bf for Christmas but I was so excited about them I couldn't wait another month to show these to him. The glasses are simply fantastic. Bf marveled at how light they are, and they look so beautiful holding your beverage. No condensation forms and they keep your drink cold for SO long. I usually sip my soft drinks and by the time I'm done they're room temp or very diluted from ice cubes. But with these, my drinks were cold to the last drop! I've been hand washing them gently and drying them in a rack, because I'm afraid of them clanking with other things in the dish washer. We use these glasses all the time and I'm SO glad I gave them to him now so he can enjoy them over the holidays!
Amazing Morning Coffee October 21, 2008
Luxury and delicious. Every morning a perfect and hot latte in a glass that feels and looks beautiful. I heat the milk in the microwave and pour the espresso over all. I have been doing so for many months now--with one loss as someone tried leaving one on the porch for a day or so. Otherwise, a little care and no worries. It is well worth the effort!
