People have been buying and drinking beer forever, and while beer may not have been invented in Germany, many people believe it was perfected there.

  The only real difference between a collectible old style German beer stein for sale and a huge mug is large beer steins have a hinged lid that covers the beer or other beverage. The lid was created for sanitary measures. After the end of the black plague people became much more aware of how diseases are spread. By the early 1500s, several areas of what is now Western Germany and Bavaria passed laws requiring that all food and beverage containers including beer drinking mugs and cups be covered to protect consumers. This was accomplished by adding a hinged lid with a thumb lift. This ingenious invention was used to cover all German beverage containers including beer steins while allowing them to be used with one hand.
