CUSTOMIZED GLASSES

Customized Glasses Create Special Moments

Serving your beer in printed glass is the most impactful way to make it stand out from the crowd. From the first sip, a custom pint glass is more than just a drinking vessel, it’s a snapshot of a brewery’s personality.

Boelter views beer glassware as the centerpiece of the customer experience, whether in your taproom, in a bar, or at a local beer festival. Each time they raise a branded glass, drinkers are invited to be part of your brand, whether it’s their first time tasting your craft beer or spirit - or their 100th.

That's a special moment.

Choosing the Right Inks and Processes

We’re proud to offer so many choices when it comes to printed glass, but we know it can be overwhelming. Our beer glassware experts can help you navigate the right picks for your brand and budget, but here are some concepts to help get you started.


Screen Printing, Digital Printing, and Decals

These are many of the ways we apply art to a printed glass.

Screen printing is the industry standard for custom beer glasses and uses either UV inks or non-lead ceramic enamels to create a wide range of colors and designs.

Digital printing offers quicker turnaround, a wide array of colors via 4-color process (CMYK), and high-level printing capabilities for branded glass - including full-wrap designs and intricate detail.

Decals are available with organic and ceramic ink and are typically used when direct printing is not an option.


Inks

UV-cured organic inks offer unlimited color capabilities, produce a high-gloss finish, and provide excellent dishwasher durability for custom pint glasses.

Non-lead ceramic enamel (NLV) has a matte finish for customized glasses that is very scratch resistant.

Speciality inks also available, including glitter, UV blacklight, and glow-in-the-dark, iridescent, and color-changing options.
