Manufacturer: Spaten Brewery/Bavaria/Germany This wonderful souvenir pottery beer stein from the town of Munic, Bavaria is marked: GS Spaten Munchen (1L-fs). The Spaten Brewery has a long history but it was in 1622 that the Family Spatt gave their name to the brewery they owned in Munich. In 1807 it was taken over by the Royal Court Brewer Gabriel Sedlmayr and he in turn left the brewery to his sons Gabriel and Joseph. In 1861 the brewery started its close relationship with the Franziskaner Brewery and by 1867 Spaten was the largest brewery in Munich. In 1922 the two breweries of Spaten and Franziskaner officially joined to become the Spaten-Franziskaner-Leistbräu AG. In 1997, Löwenbräu and Spaten, two of the major Munich based breweries decided to merge to form the Spaten-Löwenbräu Group and control of this is today in the hands of the Belgian drinks giant InBev. In very good + condition, without chips, cracks or fleabites it measures 7 1/4 inches tall, 3 1/2 inches across the rim and 4 1/4 inches across the base. I have 2 of these steins in stock. Price quoted is for each 1 ordered.
