Herforder Pils Beer Coaster
Beverage Accessory

Herforder Pils Beer Coaster

The item is a circular paper beer coaster. It is approximately 3.5 to 4 inches in diameter and appears to be made from a pressed pulp material characteristic of vintage beer coasters. The color is a light tan or beige with red printing. The design is a vintage style featuring several elements. At the top is a small crest or coat of arms inside a shield shape, colored red and white. Below the crest, in a prominent position, is the word "Herforder" in a flowing script font, colored red. To the right of "Herforder" and slightly below, is the word "Pils" in the same red color and script font. Below these words, in smaller red block letters, are the words "...ein Genuss!" which translates from German to "...a treat!" or "...a pleasure!". There is a thin red circular line around the perimeter of the coaster. The overall design is simple but classic for this type of item. The surface shows some minor signs of wear consistent with use as a coaster, such as perhaps slight discoloration or edge wear, though the printing appears clear. There are no obvious tears, major stains, or repairs visible in the image. The style of the typeface and design suggests a potential age range, likely mid to late 20th century, but without specific markings or context, this is an estimate. It is a mass-produced item, typical of promotional materials for breweries.
