Original Hofbräuhaus München Beer Stein "Salt Glaze" with Pewter Lid
Original Hofbräuhaus München Beer Stein "Salt Glaze" with Pewter Lid
The iconic original among Hofbräuhaus beer steins – crafted the traditional way. Each stein is hand-thrown, salt-glazed, hand-painted, and kiln-fired in Germany using time-honored techniques. The distinct textured salt-glazed finish not only gives the stein its classic character but also helps preserve beer carbonation naturally.
The finely embossed pewter lid adds an elegant touch and helps keep your beer cooler and fresher for longer. Made from thick, insulating stoneware, this stein is both functional and durable – a true essential for fans of Bavarian beer culture.

About the Manufacturer
This is not just a beer stein – it’s an original, handcrafted piece of German heritage. Made by KING-WERK, one of the last remaining traditional stein manufacturers in Germany, each mug is produced in Höhr-Grenzhausen, a historic town in the Westerwald region, known for its centuries-old stoneware craftsmanship.
Founded in 1949, KING-WERK stands for “Krüge Internationaler Geltung” – or “Steins of International Renown.” This name reflects the company’s dedication to quality, authenticity, and traditional craftsmanship. Every stein is 100% made in Germany, created by skilled artisans using techniques passed down through generations.
As the exclusive license partner of Hofbräuhaus München, KING-WERK is the only official producer of these steins, each one proudly bearing the authentic Hofbräuhaus logo. These are not mass-produced items – they are certified originals, made to last, and rich in cultural significance.
Whether you're a collector, beer lover, or someone who appreciates true craftsmanship, a KING-WERK stein brings the spirit of Munich and genuine German beer culture right into your home.
