Vintage Budweiser Holiday Clydesdales Beer Stein

This is a collectible ceramic beer stein produced for Anheuser-Busch, specifically featuring the iconic Budweiser Clydesdales. The stein is constructed from heavy stoneware with a cream-colored base glaze and high-relief (bas-relief) molded decorations. The central design showcases the famous Clydesdale horse team in harness, accompanied by the classic 'A & Eagle' corporate logo prominently centered. Above the logo, molded depictions of barley stalks and green hops are visible, emphasizing the brewing ingredients. The text 'Anheuser-Busch' is scripted in a green band across the middle, while 'Budweiser' is featured in red embossed lettering near the base. The overall style is characteristic of the annual holiday editions released from the late 1970s through the 1990s. The craftsmanship shows intricate detailing in the harness and horse anatomy. Condition-wise, the stein appears to be in good vintage state with no visible cracks or major chips, although there is some organic surface dust and minor shelf wear near the base. The color palette consists of earthy tones—browns, greens, and ochre—period-correct for these promotional series. It lacks a lid, indicating it was likely designed as a display mug or a specific open-top edition.
