| ~ Gerstensaft die liebe Gab ~ | |
| Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't is half the message on this beautiful crystal glass beer stein made around early 1900s. | |
|
Gerstensaft die liebe Gab, spület allen Kummer ab. |
Barley juice (beer) the beloved gift, washes all troubles away. |
 |
 |
| This same verse appears on this hand painted glass pitcher, ca. 1900. | ||
