Aktienbrauerei Amberg [25th ANNIVERSARY 1897 - 1922]
Hand painted highlights with thick enamel | The colors are bright and shiny
Beautiful and original pewter lid
The strap and tang are tight and lid sits perfectly
There are two (2) marks on base yet to have been identified???
There is a small engraved mark on tang - hard to make out though
1/2 L. capacity and calibration marks
Super clean and tight for its age
Solid Blue line on circumference of base
The pictures really don’t do this steinkrug justice, so often the case
Close-up - Notice also small mark that looks like an “F” directly below the black dot blemish?
THIS IS TRULY AN IMPORTANT HISTORICAL BREWERY STEINKRUG!
Original Aktienbrauerei Amberg Brauerei Steinkrug. [Brauhaus Amberg AG Amberg]
1/2 L. capacity
The “25" on the steinkrug is a commemorative 25th anniversary [1897 - 1922] of the Aktienbrauerei. The Brewery Aktienbrauerei [Brauhaus Amberg] was located in Amberg, Bavaria, Germany. I had visited it before its doors sadly closed in 1990. Dawn, my wife, and I use to frequent Nuremberg and its surrounding towns and villages, such as Amberg and Bamberg, to enjoy the many local gausthaus, brauerei, and beerfest. Sure miss those days!
Steinkrugs like this bring back those wonderful memories!!
This steinkrug has beautiful, bright colors with thickly enameled highlights throughout the unique design.
