Cheetham Bell create Manchester Bee glass for Joseph Holt

Bee Glass

Ad agency Cheetham Bell has created a Manchester Bee Glass for brewer Joseph Holt.

At first glance, the design appears to be a pint glass with black stripes around it, but when filled with beer, it transforms into the iconic Manchester Bee.

The glass was created by Cheetham Bell’s Steve Lownes and Aron Sidhu and will only be available while stocks last.

The duo said: “The best ideas are the simplest. You see the bee all over Manchester: on streets, shopfronts, even tattooed on people’s bodies. We’re over-the-moon to have helped our client become the first brewer to put it on a glass”.

Joseph Holt’s Marketing Manager Paul Longmire said: “We’ve combined two of Manchester’s most iconic symbols – beer and the bee – to create the Manchester Bee Glass.

“We are delighted to immortalise the symbol of our great city this way. The Manchester Bee is something that all generations relate to. We hope people enjoy watching their beer turn into a bee.”

People can get a bee glass by buying five pints of Northern Hop at 78 of Joseph Holt’s 127 pubs across the North West.
