[Ansteorra] fwd: [Lochac] Commemorative Beer Stein

[Stefan li Rous]

I just saw this on the Lochac list (Australia and New Zealand) and  
thought it was an interesting idea. Since we've got a lot of groups  
near to celebrating major anniversaries, I thought someone might wish  
to do something similar for their group.

Or maybe there is a modern, cheap way to engrave/sandblast glass  
steins with such decorations.

While workable for baronies, I think we've had too many royal couples  
to do something similar for Ansteorra.

Greetings,

The tenure of AElfled and Gui as Baroness and Baron has given way to  
that of
Annora and Loyola; about time to toast remembrances of the good times  
and to
wash away the memories of the bad.

The perfect vessel with which to do this is the Rowany Commemorative  
Stein!
Fill it to the brim with a half-litre of your favourite beverage, and  
get
all the way through court without needing a refill (probably).

Adorned with the heraldic Arms of every Baroness and Baron who have
completed a tenure as nobility of Rowany, and some writing to help you
remember why you got it in the first place, it's a timeless collector's
item.

Available now from Jakob von Otterberg (c/o Gui & AElfled) at only $25
apiece for this quality glassware. Stocks are limited, so get your  
order in
soon.
