Budweiser Steins
AB's Budweiser is known as "The King of Beers" and justifies that title by being the single greatest selling beer in the world. Mirroring this popularity, the Budweiser Beer Steins comprise a vast collection of styles and editions to promote that accomplishment.
Characters used in Anheuser-Busch's advertising campaigns also make up some of the most popular Budweiser Beer Stein collectors editions. The "Spuds MacKenzie" dog has featured on many favorite steins as well as the "Dalmatian" figurine design.
Undoubtedly the most favored of the figurine advertising characters has been "Bud Man", the beer drinkers superhero. Begun on 1975, "Bud Man" sported thirteen variations in design and the lid opened at the mouth of the character. Other releases of "Bud Man" have been designed where the entire head acts as the lid.
