The first beer mugs appeared at the beginning of the 16th century in Germany. A little later, they got caps with a thumb lever. This happened after the appearance of the beer purity law, introduced by Duke William IV, a great connoisseur of this foamy drink, in 1516 in Ingolstadt, the capital of Bavaria, so that impurities and aromas could not spoil its wonderful taste. In Germany, beer mugs are a national treasure, and the stories on them often tell the stories of the lives of people from different backgrounds. In Nazi Germany, the beer mug acquired an additional special symbolism. It was with the throwing of a beer mug by Hitler in the Munich beer hall "Burgerbreukeller" on November 8, 1923, that the first attempt by the future leader of the Third Reich to seize power in Germany began, which later became known as the "Beer Putsch". Needless to say, the first beer mugs with veteran symbols were knocked on the tables of Munich pubs by enthusiastic listeners in agreement with the speeches of the young speaker long before the events at the Burgerbreukeller. Thus, the beer mug became an unofficial symbol of the National Socialist regime. Among the soldiers of the Wehrmacht and the SS, commemorative beer mugs covered with glaze, patterns, inscriptions, sketches with scenes of battles or barracks life, often made by hand, embodied the spirit of that very soldier's Kameradschaft. "camaraderie") and became the main participants in noisy German beer feasts - "Stamtish". After almost a hundred years, a beer mug is still the best gift for a man as a symbol of military camaraderie and strong friendship. A true beer lover cannot be content with just an ordinary glass or bottle. A beautiful mug with a long history increases pleasure a hundred times.
