Dimple Beer Mugs – Making A UK Comeback after years out of fashion
Dimple Beer Mugs Make a Comeback
Dimple beer mugs have been around in the world for a very long time and used to be fashionable in the United Kingdom a long time ago. 30 Years ago, if you went to a pub and ordered a pint of beer, whether that be a pint of bitter or a pint of larger, you where more than likely to receive it in a dimple beer mug. Things have changed, and since then the popularity of dimple beer mugs has somewhat decreased becoming almost unfashionable in the public house trade. However, things are changing and it would appear that dimple beer mugs are making a comeback!
A dimple beer mug is a glass mug fashioned similar to the kind of mug that you might have a cup of tea or a cup of soup in at home. Made out of glass dimple beer mugs usually have a glass handle, and a complete glass structure. Dimple beer mugs are usually made much thicker than normal glasses and this gives them a sturdy feel which is perhaps why they are now becoming fashionable again in public houses across the country.
The key element of styling on dimple beer mugs is the dimples along the site. These dimples are almost thumb sizes and surround the mug itself but not on the handle. Nobody really knows why the dimples where placed on dimple beer mugs, perhaps just for aesthetics and to make the mug look nice. The true practicality of the dimples however is the fact that it gives the dimple beer mug a really good grip. For both the bar staff pouring the pint and managing the dimple beer mug in washing, storage and service, but also for the customer when they have their drink at the bar.
Dimple beer mugs in the past have been common in working mans clubs, workhouses and the older generation. For the older generation dimple beer mugs is a fashion that has never died out, but now statistics from public houses, customers, bar goers, drinkers and commercial glassware sales indicate that the younger generation too like their drink in a dimple beer mug.
Dimple beer mugs make for a great drink no matter what you are pouring into them. The usual suggestion for dimple beer mugs is a light bitter as this is what was traditionally served in dimple beer mugs however in their modern day comeback dimple mugs seem now to be used for lagers. A great benefit for publicans is that a dimple beer mug is much less likely to break if mistreated as the thicker glass can withstand the odd nock and bump.
Projections indicate that dimple beer mug sales are only likely to increase and perhaps overtake the UK’s favourite glass at the moment, the tumbler, in the next few years. It is suggested that all publicans, public houses and drink retailers begin to stock dimple beer mugs and use them for serving so they are ready for the new drinking phase about to hit the UK. Dimple beer mugs are only on the way up.
But this is good news for people in the commercial glassware trade and public houses as dimple beer mugs are actually relatively cheap compared to what people know as the Tumbler today, particularly given the extra time that goes into styling these glasses and the strength, thickness and quality of glass that is likely to be found in commercial dimple beer mugs.
