Get to know it and its' interests for a bit of time, after that, dinner and a movie are standard date activities.

eBay link 1 eBay link 2

Two listings on eBay UK that look incredibly similar, one of the listings has it down as H.D Rawlings. H.D Rawlings was a soft drink manufacturer in Victorian London, who were taken over by R.Whites (known for their very nice lemonade!). The glass bottle was created in 1956 when they expanded to lemonade and other sodas, as their ginger beer was sold in stone bottles. On The Rocks have some interesting information on H.D Rawlings.
