HB “Keferloher” jug, 1 liter, salt glaze with pewter lid

From at least the 13th century, beer was served in ceramic beer mugs in pubs.

The original shape was simple and straightforward. The first large beer hall at the Oktoberfest was equipped with 400 beer mugs without and 50 beer mugs with pewter lids by the Schottenhamel family in 1896.

At the end of the 19th century, breweries discovered the possibility of using mugs as an advertising medium. The brewery logo was stamped into the jug and covered with cobalt blue.

Just like hundreds of years ago, these jugs are still made by hand in the traditional way.

The lid made of real pewter protects the cool drink from dust or insects today as it did then.

Tip: Cool the mug in the fridge before use. This way the mug keeps the beer cool and fresh for much longer.
