Figured this was needed given all the questions raised about older glasses and the BCBS glasses. If you've got them and have the details behind them then post them up! I'm only posting the ones I own so I'll let other people take credit for those bad boys. Expecting to see thewimperoo flexin' hard in this *****.

Mid-2000's release. Not sure what other details are available:



Early to mid-2000's or late 90's release according to some. Not sure exactly:



BCBS Glasses:

2012 Black Friday Release, Batch 1 original session glass.



2013 Black Friday Release glass:



2014 Black Friday Release glass:

 
this is definitely my favorite GI glass i own. i have most of the bcbs ones, and a tasting glass with the old logo etched from migration week.

Here are a few more. I instagramed the **** out of a few of them, so the quality of the pictures are not ideal.

This glass is older (not sure how old), but the story I got was they found a few boxes of them at Clybourn a year or two ago.

Another view of the 2nd glass that Treebs posted. When we found these a friend reached out to Ken H at Goose Island for some additional information, and we were told late 90's to early 2000's for this one but they couldn't find an exact date. An extremely similar glass had about 6 cases in stock at Goose Island Clybourn for a couple weeks about 2-3 years ago.

We were able to get about 6 of these when Brixies in Brookfield IL did a garage sale of glassware and other assorted brewerania about 3-4 years ago.
 
We can start with the chalices that I have that haven't already been posted.

Vintage Ales Chalice with Original Matilda 'M' - I scored this randomly off the shelf of Andersonville Wine & Spirits in 2012. Dating back to mid 2000's would be my guess.
IMG_4324.JPG


Vintage Ales Chalice with Silver Goose - From what I remember these were used for Sofie, Matilda, Sisters at bars for a while prior to being sold everywhere. I think I first got one back in 2010.
IMG_3619.JPG


Vintage Ales Chalice with Silver Goose & Name - These are an updated version of the original silver goose that now includes Goose Island Beer Company on the back. Started being sold through GI's website in 2014.
2014-11-28.jpg


Vintage Ales Chalice with Silver Goose & Name CA version - Different paint used in order to be compliant for sale in CA. Font is different on the name as well. Started being sold through GI's website in 2014.
2014-11-281.jpg


Vintage Ales Chalice with White Goose & Name - Logo and name are in white. These were around locally in 2014. Can't remember which store it came from.
2015-03-08.jpg


I know that there is a Vintage Ales Chalice with a Black Goose logo that I don’t currently own.

Oversized wine glass with Goose Flag and Gold Rim – This is the one that Gonzoillini referenced as being available back in March of 2013. There were a few cases available at Clybourn. I bought 3 glasses and gave the other two to friends. The logos were never in the best of condition. This is the same time that the first glass that dc55110 posted was also available. Not sure why I didn’t buy that one too. The main difference it seems between this glass and the other pictured is this one has a gold rim. The shape seems the same. Would need to do a real side by side to see.

Other random stemware

Gold & White Goose Cervoise – I got mine from Clybourn back in 2013. They’ve been more available and much cheaper at liquor stores locally since then.

Goose Clybourn Brewpub snifter – A different angle pic for the glass already posted by dc55110 Another early 2013 pickup from Clybourn.

St. Genevieve Chalice – Created for the release of the Fulton & Wood beer, St. Genevieve. I scored from an employee, but I’d imagine they were also given out at the release party. June 2015

Goose Clybourn Black Flag logo mini nonic – This is the design used by Clybourn for many of their festivals in the early 2010’s (Stout Fest, Belgian Fest). Logo seemed to mostly stay the same with the fest designation on the back changing.

Since I can't go back and edit the other posts. Here's a pic of the other side of the St. Genevieve glass
IMG_1837.JPG
Do you have rough release dates for these? In addition to cataloging the glasses it would be nice to try to compile release timelines as well.

****, thought I had put the date for Great Road. It came out at the end of September 2015. I put the date for St. Genevieve in the earlier post with the front side of the glass. It came out in June 2015.

Really wish we could go back and edit posts.
 
Looks like the Orlando '15 Mini I posted will be in the same boat as the '14 Riverside Mini (Jacksonville, FL.) The same group from Goose Island had these glasses made for a pub crawl event on Wednesday. Less than 140 were made. This was not a product of a local bar making their own boot leg glass. The person who I spoke with didn't think any other markets made glassware this year but he could be wrong. I'd be interested in seeing examples from elsewhere if they exist.

Did the main GI locations do anything specific for themselves this year?
