Delft Blue Beer mugs
Cheers to Holland! Our Delft Blue beer mugs bring together two proud Dutch traditions: a good beer and the famous blue-and-white pottery. Choose from classic windmills in the polder landscape, crooked Amsterdam canal houses or typically Dutch scenes, from a handy small mug to a generous 900 ml stein. An original gift for the beer lover in your life, a lasting memento of your trip to the Netherlands, or simply a striking mug for your own favourite brew.
Buy a Delft Blue beer mug: Dutch heritage with a frothy head
Did you know that beer and Delft Blue share a history? In the sixteenth century, Delft was a true brewing town, with dozens of breweries along its canals. When the beer trade declined in the seventeenth century, potters moved into the empty brewery buildings. Many of Delft's well-known potteries even kept the old brewery names. A Delft Blue beer mug neatly brings those two worlds back together.
A beer mug, or stein, is a sturdy drinking vessel with a handle. Because our mugs are made of ceramic, they sit firmly and comfortably in the hand. De Holland Winkel has been selling Dutch souvenirs and Delft Blue since 2002, and in this category you'll find all our beer mugs in the familiar blue-and-white style.
Which Delft Blue beer mugs can you choose from?
Windmills and polder landscapes
The windmill is perhaps the best-known Dutch image on Delft Blue. On these mugs, the sails turn above a wide landscape of ditches, little boats and a low horizon.
Amsterdam canal houses
A row of narrow canal houses with step gables and neck gables wrapped around the mug. Perfect as an Amsterdam souvenir for anyone who wants to remember the city with every sip.
Typically Dutch scenes
Mugs with classic Dutch motifs in blue and white. A recognisable gift that shows at a glance where it comes from.
Small or large
Pick a smaller mug for a craft beer or a soft drink. Serious beer drinkers go for the large 900 ml stein, which holds more than two bottles of beer in one go.
A Dutch gift for every beer lover
A Delft Blue beer mug is a gift that won't disappear into a cupboard. Use it at a barbecue, a birthday party or simply on the sofa, and in between it looks lovely on a shelf. That makes it one of the nicest typically Dutch souvenirs for anyone who enjoys a good beer.
