From looking at this one you would never guess it's actually a Budweiser stein. Well an Anheuser Busch stein to be technically correct. They did a series of windmill beer steins and my Mom likes windmills so I ended up with one for Christmas one year. I'm pretty sure it wasn't 2001 when the stein was released and while the sale sticker says $75 down from $150 I bet she talked them down even more.
