Barley and Hops with Saying

Catalog No. (T120)

Pottery, threaded relief, 0.25L, inlaid lid.

Text:
�Gerstensaft und Hopfen giebt gar gute Tropfen.�
(Barley juice and hops produce really good drops.)

The somewhat unusual text on this stein, suggesting that barley juice and hops, the principal ingredients in traditional beer, produce a less than satisfying product, appears to be a sentiment that might be expressed at Zum Franziskaner (see lid inlay), a Munich Restaurant best known for its Franziskaner Weissbier, a wheat beer and competitor to barley-based brews.

Price Range: $75-$100
