| ~ Bürger schreib den Rat dir auf ~ | |
| Tax on beer was a serious bone of contention for German drinkers and it shows on this blue/gray, salt-glazed, stoneware stein marked "1993", ca. 1900. | |
|
Bürger schreib den Rat dir auf erst zahl steuern und dann sauf. |
Citizen take note of the rule: first pay the tax and then drink up. |
