Mine's A Pint


You don't very often see these types of beer glasses in pubs now. The classic handled tankard. I'm not sure why they've gone out of fashion. Possibly because they can't promote ale and lager brands on them in the same way that they do with the more modern pint glass.

I took this at the Lincolnshire Poacher pub in-between Dave's two sets.

Mine's a Pint


This pub, the Nags Head is on Mansfield Road, and is a typical example of a city centre pub. It's quite old (110 years) but has been slightly updated. The roof is clearly new. Country pubs differ, as they usually have exposed roof beams, horse brasses and similar things that go with rural living, but urban hostelries seem to lack a bit of character with the decor.
