Pony glass
Pony Glass[edit | edit source]
A Pony Glass is a type of glassware that is commonly used in bars and restaurants. It is typically smaller than a pint glass and is often used for serving beer, cocktails, and other beverages.
History[edit | edit source]
The term "Pony Glass" originated in the United States during the 19th century. It was named after the small horses, known as ponies, due to its smaller size compared to other beer glasses. The Pony Glass was initially used in saloons for customers who preferred to drink their beer in smaller quantities.
Design and Usage[edit | edit source]
A Pony Glass typically holds around 140 to 180 milliliters of liquid. It is designed to be easy to hold and is often used for serving stronger beers and cocktails, as its smaller size allows the drink to remain cold until it is finished.
In addition to its use in bars and restaurants, the Pony Glass is also popular in home bars and is often included in glassware sets. It is also commonly used for tasting sessions, as its size allows for multiple samples to be served without excessive consumption.
Variations[edit | edit source]
There are several variations of the Pony Glass, including the Stemmed Pony Glass and the Handled Pony Glass. The Stemmed Pony Glass features a stem and base, similar to a wine glass, while the Handled Pony Glass includes a handle for easy holding.
Care and Maintenance[edit | edit source]
Like all glassware, Pony Glasses should be handled with care to prevent breakage. They should be washed by hand with warm soapy water and dried with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
