0.5L Beer Stein

[Rob2010SS]

Anyone bought any half liter, glass, beer steins that they really like? I've been trying to find a couple but haven't had much luck with finding one that I like enough to buy. I don't plan on having it customized so I don't necessarily need the space on the front for customization.

Disregard. Found some at www.germansteins.com

Thanks.

I've had good luck searching for used ones on Craigslist/Facebook marketplace (depending on your location) for roughly $5-$10 each. My collection of about (10) mixed brewery/local festival of Austrian 1L dimple mugs didn't take too long to acquire. The hard part becomes where to store them haha. I throw an annual Oktoberfest party with a fully stocked kegerator so they usually get used heavily once a year. Prost!

Lol, that's exactly why I wanted a couple. Got a Marzen in the tank and I feel like I'm doing it wrong if I don't drink it out of a stein mug!

Good call on the .5l size though. Like I said, I rarely use the full size mass mugs unless the chicken dance is playing in the background or there is a photo opportunity. I prefer to drink freshly poured beer, hence smaller glasses at home and filling your own glass whenever you want.

Not for a Märzen, but if you're looking for 0.5 l Czech lager mugs, I picked up six from this Amazon store:

They took a while to arrive from Austria (the delays were on the USPS side) but they are the genuine article:

Yeah I have a 1L Paulaner mug and it's just too big. I like to enjoy the beer and not slam it. It's too warm on the last half when you fill that thing up lol.
