Thread Name: BS: Dimpled pint pots
Subject: RE: BS: Dimpled pint pots
I always ask for a 'handle' with my pint. Reasons? force of habit, and a willingness to drink the beer I pay for. Drinking in a group where most people are drinking whatever the local real bitter is, when there are several sat at a table it is easy to pick up the wrong pint (by accident or otherwise). This doesn't happen if you are the only one drinking from a handled glass. (You have no excuse for drinking someone else's either, but 'thems the breaks').
I am currently seeking a couple of replacement 'handled' 'pint' pots which are a measure 'to the line'. The two I have used in my local club over the last 20 years have both now expired, and replacing them is proving to be a problem. E-mails to a couple of manufacturers listed in "What's Brewing" have so far failed to find such items.
