A glass version of the Mass Krug is called a [B]Seidel [/B]-- this is the one you see in Munich beer gardens. Some people tend to call both the Mass Krug and the Seidel "[B]steins[/B]". In fact, a Stein, or "[B]Steinzeugkrug[/B]" is a stoneware beer mug with a hinged, thumb-tabbed pewter lid. It is widely believed that the lid was introduced as a hygiene measure after bubonic plague, or "black death", killed about a third of Europe's population in the fourteenth century.
