Please look closely at all photos for an accurate understanding of condition. Bevo was an alcohol free cereal malt beverage introduced by Anheuser-Busch in about 1916 and produced until 1929. At first it was only distributed to soldiers in the military but it was marketed nationally as soon as Prohibition was enacted. It was the leading near-beer on the market during Prohibition but production stopped before 1930 due to lack of sales. Speakeasies had become popular enough by that time that non-alcoholic, legal beer wasn't selling much. This glass has a red etched label in great condition. Neat little piece from a short period in brewing history. These old beer glasses are perfect for display or every day use. Grab this one today and enjoy your next man cave happy hour in style!
