Although this is made in Turkey, this glass stein is very nice. I don't have any visible flaws on my glass stein so I think it's safe to say it's perfect; however, the shipping is kind of on the pricey side.
So for its price + S&H, what do you get?
1) You get this Munchen glass stein in a nice big box filled with foam to protect it
2) Another box that encases the stein itself
3) Very speedy delivery - it came on the first expected day Amazon stated
Now for the ups and downs:
Pro(s):
- Great quality, thick glass (might be better if it were made in Germany, but the price would definitely go up)
- Keeps beverage cold for a good duration
- Strong textured handle
- Holds a liter
Con(s):
- Pricey but I wanted to enjoy Oktoberfest properly
- Not free shipping
Put this glass stein in a freezer for at least 15 minutes and then pop 2-3 ice cold cans/bottles of your favorite brand and boom! You just got yourself a piece of Heaven.
Now since it's October, I'm going to take this to an Oktoberfest event for them to fill up. Ziggy Zaggy Ziggy Zaggy Oiy Oiy Oiy!!!
Cheers!
