Sorry Kev....
I went on a beer fueled spending spree a little before oktoberfest this year and somehow now have 5 Weihenstephaner ceramic steins; 2 x 0.5L without lids, 2 x with, 1L and a 1L glass stein... seems pretty stupid when i only have one mouth. plus they all arrived after oktober(fest). ohh well least i'm right for next year.
But i agree, they would make a great gift as there is nothing better than drinking a nice cold (german) beer out of a stein, and besides, the g/f cant see how quickly you're drinking your beer, or whether you've filled it up again.... HA...
