They look just like real beer steins – only pocket-sized: five shot glasses with handles, each bearing the logo of a brewery from Austria or Germany. Serve a fruit schnapps or a herbal liqueur in them at your next gathering, and the conversation at the table starts all by itself.
The Glasses in Detail
Each glass is modeled on a classic beer mug, with a handle and a sturdy glass base. The brewery logos are permanently applied, not stuck on, so they won’t come off when washed. A 4 cl (1.35 oz) fill line marks the pour. A typical piece of vintage barware from the 1970s, when glasses like these stood in many Austrian home bars and taverns.

Care

The Megaflohmarkt in Vienna, between crates of glasses no one bothers to count anymore. These five stood together like a regulars’ table that simply stayed seated after closing time. Each carries the mark of a different brewery – and yet they belong together. Perhaps that is what friendship is: different labels, one shared table.
