The Stiefel beer glass, also known as a beer boot, is a unique and fun drinking vessel that is particularly popular at parties and social occasions. It has the shape of a tall boot and can come in different sizes, often with a capacity of one litre or more. The beer boot is not only an eye-catcher, but also a challenge for the drinker, as a sudden gush of beer can escape when drinking if the boot is tilted the wrong way. It is traditionally made of glass, which beautifully accentuates the golden colour and foam of the beer.
