Yard of Ale Glass on Wooden Base
The Yard of Ale glass is a traditional English beer vessel with origins dating from at least the 17th century. It has a distinctive shape with a bulb at the bottom and a narrow stem opening out to a wide mouth. It has long been associated with toasting ceremonies and drinking games as the bulb design at the base means that once raised the glass cannot be rested. Typically when not in use, the Yard of Ale glass is stored on a wall on a wooden base or stand. The optional wood base offered with these glasses is ideal for wall-mounting. The fine quality Yard of Ale glass and Half Yard of Ale glass offered here can be engraved to create unique gifts or ceremonial drinking glasses, and they are offered with free engraving of text and logos. As well as corporate gifts or awards, or sporting gifts (the Yard of Ale makes an ideal rugby gift), these long glasses are also perfect as commemorative gifts for 'coming of age' landmarks such as 18th birthday gifts or 21st birthday gifts. They are also popular as retirement gifts too.
