I picked this up in De Kringwinkel today and tried to do some research on it. From what I gathered, Tomsin was the last Hoegaarden brewery before it shut down in the 1950s. Then Peter Celis revived the style and brewed Oud Hoegaards beer. I am wondering if anyone knows around what year this glass is from and if it is truly an old vintage Hoegaarden glass?

I doubt that it has any value.
You can buy it for 1 euro on 2dehands and similar websites

You used to see those glasses a lot before, think it’s an old glass from this brewery
Pretty sure my parents bar had these glasses, n the 80’s. I think they changed to the hexagonal ones they still use today on the 90’s?
My dad has these. Pure 80s.
Old school witte van Hoegaarden glass. Used to always come in this glass when I was younger (80-90s) Nothing really special about the glass except for the nostalgia fact and that they look pretty cool.
I got one from a cousin in Belgium. I actually bought back a few older Belgian beer glasses back to Canada and started a collection. I have about 24 different varieties.
