Das History of Das Beer Boot
The beer boot, or ābierstiefelā in German, is more than a party favor or movie prop. Beer boots are an iconic piece of German history. The beer boot traces back to Germanic tribes during the height of the Roman Empire who would drink from stoneware shaped like boots prior to battle.
Drinking, or chugging, a beer boot can be traced back to a Prussian general in Berlin who lost a bet with his soldiers, meaning he had to drink beer out of his boots at the next celebration. To avoid sweaty boot beer, the general had a glass boot commissioned by a local glass blower. Awestruck, his soldiers had their own glass boots made and started a tradition.
Das Boot Drinking Challenge
Das boot! There are no better-bragging rights than those earned by drinking two liters of beer from a giant boot faster than your buddies. Hoist your 2 liter boot high above your head and remember the day you defeated Das Boot!
The trick to defeating Das Boot is avoiding the cursed beer boot air bubble. Air collects in the toe of the boot and spills beer everywhere once it breaks through. Professionals know that turning the toe outwards prevents an air bubble and makes drinking 68 ounces of beer a lot easier.
Beer Boot Gifts
Is there a better gift than a giant laser-engraved glass boot designed for drinking? No. No there is not. German Steins will laser engrave up to three lines of text, or an image onto any glass beer boot. Commemorate your wedding, an anniversary, or the first time you defeated Das Boot with a personalized beer boot from German Steins.
