Specifically you’ll be looking at lower alcohol beers that you enjoy drinking a lot of. Think session beers that have a mild flavor profile. Where Can I Buy Nonic Pint Glasses / English Pub Glasses?

When we raise a glass to toast one another, we shout ‘cheers’ and then clink our glasses together. While it is a much more satisfying experience to clink glass pint glasses together rather than ceramic or pewter tankards, the exact origins of this tradition have been lost in history. United Kingdom law [ edit ] A dimpled glass pint jug with "Pint to Line" and Crown certification mark Tulip-shaped glass with the Crown stampThere are tons of different beer glasses out there, but they’re not created equally. The nonic pint glass was made in the early 1900s with the beer drinker and the bartender in mind. What Is a Nonic Pint Glass? A pint glass is a form of drinkware made to hold either a British imperial pint of 20 imperial fluid ounces (568 ml) or an American pint of 16 US fluid ounces (473ml). Other definitions also exist, see below. These glasses are typically used to serve beer, and also often for cider. UK Parliament early Day Motion 988, Feb 20 2008". Archived from the original on 1 May 2008 . Retrieved 30 August 2008. A nonic pint can also be an imperial pint or a U.S. pint. In the States 16oz (473ml) constitutes a pint of beer, however over in the U.K. a pint is 20 British fluid oz (568ml). Therefore if you slide a U.S. pint across the bar to a Brit they’ll notice it’s too small to be called a pint. They’re right, a U.S. pint is about 20% smaller than an imperial pint. Be careful when shopping for imperial pints. Some glass manufactures will consider their product imperial simply because it has a crown printed on it, rather than basing the label on size. If a glass says it holds “20oz” it will be close enough to the standard imperial size. Where can I find a nonic pint glass?

Beer glasses are kind of like house plants—sometimes they are hard to keep alive,” Bakker says. “I recommend looking for glasses that you will be able to clean and maintain. Stemmed glasses and glasses with intricate artwork on them are nice, but always require hand washing versus ease of the dishwasher. Thinner, lighter glasses require a softer touch when cleaning, drying, and storing.”

Glass manufacturer Libbey also makes 16oz Nonic Pint Glasses. The brand is known for being durable. Apparently, Libbey uses a special process of heat treating the top of the glass to improve it's thermal resistance and susceptibleness to chipping and breakage. Under the EU Measuring Instruments Directive (Directive 2004/22/EC), the certification of measuring instruments and devices used in trade (including beer mugs, weighbridges, petrol pumps and the like) can be done by third parties anywhere within the EU with governments taking "only the legislative and enforcement ( market surveillance) functions" and "ensuring that the system of third party assessment ... has sufficient technical competence and independence" [7] (or, in simple language, calibration services were privatised). Glasses that have been certified by authorised firms anywhere within the EU have the letters CE etched on with the certifying agency's identification number. [8] [9] Conservatives campaigning to have dual markings of crown and CE were informed by EU Commissioner Günter Verheugen that "a Crown stamp look-alike could naturally be affixed to the glass, as long as it is done in such a way that it is not confused with the CE marking". [10] Following the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the EU the CE mark is being replaced by the UKCA marking for goods placed on the market in Great Britain, and in September 2021, it was announced that the Crown would return to pint glasses in the UK.

Pint glass shapes and styles

In truth, you can pour just about any beer into a Nonic. At least, any beer that would normally get poured into an American pint glass that is. However, this glass is great for almost any pour of beer that is more than 12 ounces. American pale ales, wheat beers, stouts and American light lagers are just a few other beer styles that may be poured into a nonic pint. A nonic pint glass is a beer glass that was invented in the 1900s and rose to popularity in the 1940s. Nonic pints have multiple benefits in busy bar situations because their signature bulge makes them less breakable and easier to store. They typically hold between 16 and 20 fluid ounces of beer but they are made in smaller sizes as well. What beers are usually served in a nonic pint? Beer was, and still is in the UK, measured in imperial units. In imperial units, a hogshead is 54 gallons, and a poly pin contains 36 gallons. There are eight pints to the gallon so splitting a gallon into eight pints avoids any waste ale being left at the bottom of the barrel.The foam should not cross the bottom of the bulge in a Nonic Glass when pouring your pint. Aiming for a balance dead center of liquid and foam within the bulge should be your target. If you can master that, you can master anything. Maybe. How big is the Nonic Pint Glass? It is increasingly common to find pint glasses which contain markings on the base; very often these glasses are branded to one particular beer. The markings themselves are formed from small pits, which aid in nucleation, allowing the gas within it to be released more easily, thus preserving the head. Without the aid of these pits a regular pint glass will keep a head for only 3 or 4 minutes before appearing "flat". [26] The markings come in a variety of styles ranging from a simple circular or square hatched pattern to more complicated branding messages.
