Grandad True Original Printed Pint Beer Glass 460ml - Clear

This clear beer glass is printed for Grandad, with bold navy lettering across its front that reads GRANDAD, TRUE ORIGINAL and ABSOLUTE CLASSIC. BEST and EVER run down either side in smaller letters. A little red crown sits above the name, and a pale outlined hop cone stands behind the words, with a neat band of wheat and hop motifs beneath. It is made from clear glass in the familiar tapered shape of a pub glass, widening gently from the base to the rim. It holds 460ml, a generous measure for a long drink. At 9cm across, it sits comfortably in one hand.

We think it makes a thoughtful Father's Day gift for a grandfather who enjoys a cold beer at the end of the week. The name is printed large enough to read from across the room, so it soon becomes his glass, the one the rest of the family knows not to borrow. It is just as at home at the kitchen table on a Sunday afternoon as it is in front of the football or waiting on a home bar shelf between rounds. For a grandad who likes a lager, an ale or a cider with his dinner, it is an everyday glass he will reach for again and again, not one kept for best.

The design is printed on one side of the glass, so it reads clearly from the front and shows through, reversed, from behind. As with any printed glassware, we suggest washing it by hand in warm soapy water and drying it with a soft cloth rather than leaving it to soak, which helps keep the lettering crisp and the glass bright. Wrap it with a bottle of his favourite beer and a card, and you have a Father's Day present that says exactly what you think of him.
