Why is it so hard to find a pub with straight beer glasses any more?  Duralex make both this excellent 560ml/pint glass (which feels slightlier heavier than your normal pint glass) and also the much missed straight half pint size.

Stop Press: we had a review from Greg, who rightly pointed out that if you are not used to the terminology of 'straight' for a beer glass, my title might be misleading; You can see very clearly from the pictures that the glass's sides are not parallel... They are slightly conically shaped. However, they are not a dimple pint glass either, which is why they are called a 'straight' glass. When you ordered a pint, you used to be asked 'do you want that in a straight glass or a jug?'. I do hope that clears things up.

  • The pint measures 15cm high with a 9cm diameter at the rim.
  • The half pint measures 12cm high with an 8cm diameter at the rim.

We have its little brother the 330ml version too: Now that’s what I call a water glass.  It actually makes me want to drink water. I have vaguely scary memories of headmistress in assembly using similar. Holds 33cl or just over half a pint (neither pint-glass huge or tiddly-useless – the perfect size) and is a joy to behold. So much so I had to take two pictures of it. Scrub the water idea.  Mine’s half a bitter top thanks (not shandy mind).

    How is this straight?

    I can see at least few degrees angle. Not straight really

    Morning Greg. I am so sorry if you feel the description meant the glass only merited a 2 star review! The term 'straight' is used for pub pint and half glasses that are not a 'jug' ie those with dimples and a handle. I am very sorry if the terminology caused confusion and I will amend the description accordingly.
