it looks like a transitional piece, before squat sodas but after the Midwestern ribbed flasks. it has that chestnut flask lookin top on it. maybe 1830s? it looks like it used a 3 piece ricketts mold. I could be way off though. just my observation. looks like this one, courtesy of http://www.sha.org/bottle/beer.htm#Early Porter & Ale Bottles.

The inverted taper is similar to alot of early Pittsburgh sodas but the glass appears much thinner than most sodas, it also appears larger than a soda. Here is a pic from Tod's site . . . http://www.sodasandbeers.com

It is a Pittsburg porter although it could have been made at one of several mid-western glasshouses.
