Ceramic Tankard

These beautiful ceramic tankards, lovingly handcrafted for us by Lucy Young Ceramics are the perfect vessel from which to enjoy your beer.

Lucy specialises in creating bespoke, personalised tankards for craft breweries.

Lucy has collaborated with breweries and beer shops across the UK, including Deya Brewery, Verdant Brewery, Northern Monk Brewery, Unbarred Brewery, Harvey’s Brewery, and Wiper and True, as well as independent beer shops in Southampton and Sheffield. “I love designing tankards that reflect each brewery’s branding and values—every one is unique and deserves to be represented in a beautiful, handmade ceramic mug for beer lovers.”

“It’s important to me to continue the skills passed down from my father, who began his pottery career making ceramic tankards for pubs and breweries in Oxford and the Cotswolds when I was a child.”

Each bespoke tankard is handmade in Lucy’s garden studio using speckled stoneware clay. She fires and glazes them in an electric kiln at 1220°C. The process involves throwing the main cylinder on the pottery wheel, extruding and attaching the handle, creating a logo stencil, and screen-printing it onto special rice paper before transferring it to the tankard. Lucy develops unique glazes from raw materials to match each brewery’s branding.

Most importantly, the tankards keep beer cool and hold a perfect pint-sized measure for you to enjoy!

Please note, due to the handmade nature of this product, colour, and shape may vary slightly.
