AN AMERICAN ORIGINAL
"Beer is living proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy." —Benjamin Franklin Our beer stein is named in his honor.

While beer may have originated in Europe, America’s Founding Fathers brought their own recipes, and Jacob Bromwell®—America’s oldest housewares company—proudly supplied pioneers with durable, reliable beer steins. In celebration of our recent 205th anniversary, we've brought back this historic copper stein. Crafted from solid 22-gauge copper, it holds a generous 32 fluid ounces—perfect for those with a serious thirst—and is produced in strictly limited, small-batch quantities. Every detail, from material to manufacturing process to final fit and finish, stays true to the original Jacob Bromwell® standard: authentic, historically accurate, and built to last generations. Copper is a natural insulator, keeping your ale perfectly chilled as you sip slowly. Raise a toast to American history—and to good beer—with The Ben Franklin, a beer stein that celebrates timeless craftsmanship and tradition.


Imperfectly Perfect: Minor imperfections lend charm, depth, and individuality to each piece and are a natural part of the 100% handmade process. Embrace the imperfect. This is the Jacob Bromwell® way.

Hand built from solid, 22 gauge copper.

Copper has been cherished by civilizations for millennia, not just for its functionality but for its undeniable aesthetic appeal. Its warm, reddish hue exudes an air of luxury and refinement that few materials can match.

The Ben Franklin

Elegant yet functional design.

Featuring a dramatically extended handle that makes a statement, each beer stein is finished off with our ultra-reflective SuperPolish™ finish.

The Ben Franklin

Made the "old school" way: one at a time, and by hand.

At Jacob Bromwell®, we don't mass produce products. Every Ben Franklin Beer Stein is individually hand built with over five labor hours per piece.

The Ben Franklin

Branded with the mark of distinction.

The final touch is the hand-stamped Jacob Bromwell® logo on the bottom of each beer stein—not meant to stand out, but rather to tie each stein to its proud owner and begin what will undoubtedly become a long and interesting story of carry and use.
