A holiday that gets everybody thinking about green? Well, sign Izzit up for that. As you can imagine when Izzit heard that people all over the world don emerald clothing, march in parades, have a pint or two and celebrate everything green on March 17, it became one of his most anticipated days on his calendar.
This year, Izzit wanted to get in on the fun and help green up St. Patrick’s Day — and every other day of the year as well! — by bringing to your attention three very cool recycled glass beer mugs for everyone to enjoy their green beers in this year.
The Green Glass Company’s Copenhagen Tumblers
All right, Izzit knows that Copenhagen is not in Ireland, but these tumblers are just so cool that we had to lead off with them. They also happen to be green in every sense of the word, from the way they are made to their actual color.
The Green Glass Company, which makes these tumblers, traces its start back to 1992 in South Africa, and from humble origins they’ve grown into the largest maker of reclaimed glassware on the planet. They have been able to achieve this spectacular growth because they remain true to their recycling heritage and their core business principals “to push beyond the average, strive to make a difference, thrive on creativity.”
While these recycled beer glasses may be green, it is quite clear that the Green Glass Company is thriving and making a big environmental difference. A set of four tumblers prices out at $32.50.
But what to put into those tumblers? The Izzit team thinks that a light ale or refreshing golden, pilsner style beer like the Kenzinger from the Philadelphia Brewing Company would make a great match for these green beauties. (Read our full post on organic beers here.)
