Beer Steins are handmade beer tankards made from stoneware or porcelain and originate from central Europe. Beer Steins are popular in Central Europe since the 14th century, when Germany implemented a law that required beverage containers to have a closed lid, in order to prevent the spread of Black Plague.
Nowadays, Beer Steins come in all different sizes and shapes and they are often decorated in a nostalgic manner, with allusions to Germany or Bavaria. The Steins in our collection are all handmade in Germany from master craftsmen, and handpainted in Irish and German themes.
