Manfred became renowned for his impressive flying skills, and was considered the deadliest pilot in the entire war.

What Makes a Beer Stein Authentic?

The clay to produce an authentic beer stein comes only from the Westerwald region in Germany, an area renowned for its high quality clay. Clock Shop stocks authentic beer steins manufactured by King Works (King Werks - Wuerfel & Mueller GmbH and Co. KG), one of the only remaining manufacturers in this region. 

It is important to note that many online retailers sell "German Beer Steins'' however many of these steins are similar to our souvenir stein range and are copies of authentic German steins that are not necessarily manufactured in Germany. They typically look very similar in design, however the clay used to make them is inferior to that which comes from the Westerwald region. King Werks beer steins are often based on antique designs, created by highly skilled potters that have been practicing the centuries old craft of stein making for years.
