King Ludwig Trick Beer Stein
<
Back to Traditional German Beer Steins
This stein features the most famous King
of Bavaria surrounded by Bavarian blue images of the castles
he owned. This design is applied to the traditional "puzzle" porcelain
body in which numerous holes pass through the top half of
the stein body and the along the lip rim and handle.
There
is only one special way to drink from this stein
without spilling. First, hold the tankard with the left hand,
then plug the hole that is underneath the handle with one
finger. There is another hole inside the mug at the very
base of the handle. The handle is actually hollow and functions
as a straw. The liquid passes through the handle and to the
first hole on the lip rim. Therefore, to perform the joke,
the drinker needs to actually draw the drink through the
hole rather than trying to pour the liquid all the way up
to the mouth of the stein. An attractive finishing touch
is a porcelain lithophane (see-through) bottom picture.
