through the latter part of the 20th century, most british brewers used a standard design of bottle, known as the london brewers' standard. this was in brown glass, with a conical medium neck in the pint and with a rounded shoulder in the half-pint and nip sizes. pints, defined as , and half-pints, or were the most common, but some brewers also bottled in nip (1/3-pint) and quart (2-pint) sizes. it was for example mostly barley wines that were bottled in nips, and midlands breweries such as shipstone of nottingham that bottled in quarts. this standardisation simplified the automation of bottling and made it easier for customers to recycle bottles as they were interchangeable. they carried a deposit charge, which in the 1980s rose to seven pence for a pint and five pence for a half-pint. some brewers however used individual bottle designs: among these were samuel smith, which used an embossed clear bottle, and scottish and newcastle, which used a clear bottle for their newcastle brown ale (both designs survive in the size today). other brewers such as timothy taylor had used their own embossed bottles and rare examples continued to be reused into the 1980s. during the 1980s the industry turned away from refillable bottles and uk beer bottles are now all one-trip, and most are 500 ml (16.9 u.s. fl oz; 17.6 imp fl oz) or in volume. the compulsory high recycled-content of these bottles makes them very dark and the lack of temper makes them chip easily when being opened.
