The dimpled pint glass or jug nearly disappeared from pubs a decade ago. Now this symbol of the British pub is back.
Travel back in time for a moment. Visit in your mind the fictional British pubs of the 1980s - the Woolpack in Emmerdale, the Rovers Return in Coronation Street. Someone orders a pint of bitter at the bar. What is it served in?
A glass tankard. With handle. And distinctive dimples. To some, they resembled a sort of glass grenade. You might call it a pint pot. Or a jug.
This was the traditional pint glass of yore. But in the 2000s, it came close to extinction. In 2001, Ravenhead Glass in St Helens - the last factory to make the old-style glass - closed.
A fixture in British pubs since the 1920s, the dimpled glass had been challenged by straight glasses - the conical, the nonic and the tulip. As lager conquered bitter in the 1970s and 1980s, it somehow seemed more appropriate in a straighter glass.
