Vintage Patrizier Bräu Beer Stein: 1989 Rastal German Stoneware Mug

This vintage Patrizier Bräu stoneware beer stein was crafted in 1989 by Rastal in Höhr-Grenzhausen, Germany—renowned for their precision-made brewery mugs and collectible steins. Made from high-quality ceramic stoneware, it features the classic Patrizier Bräu brewery logo in rich red, gold, and black enamel tones, with barley and hops motif and the brewery’s slogan, “Des Lebens süffige Würze” (“The savory spice of life”).

The interior is glazed for durability, while the exterior retains its traditional matte finish typical of Rastal’s late 20th-century production. The handle is sturdy and well-balanced, making it perfect for both display and practical use. The embossed 0.5L capacity mark and stamped Rastal Grenzhausen 1989 hallmark authenticate its origin and quality.

Standing approximately 5 inches tall, this German beer stein captures the heritage of Bavaria’s brewing culture and is ideal for collectors of European brewery memorabilia, German steins, or anyone seeking an authentic vintage barware accent.
