The2FunAdGuyz offer a new, high quality, reproduction print of a fun, 1882 Early American Bock Beer bar poster that will make great decor for your home bar, pub tavern or game room. Lovers of goats, animal art and breweriana will also appreciate its festive tone and whimsy. Two goats, one dancing and the other playing a fiddle—party with a bar maid. A bar maid is featured dancing with a well-dressed, dapper, billy goat while both drink large steins of dark, frothy bock beer. A second billy goat, seated on a giant wooden bock beer barrel, plays the fiddle for the dancing couple. During the Nineteenth century, lithographic companies produced stock posters such as this for saloons, bars and beer parlors. These establishments used them to decorate walls and to promote any of the beers they might be selling. TEXT: Bock Beer. ARTIST: The artist of this piece is unknown. HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE: Bock beer is the name applied to a variety of dark, lager beer originated in German breweries but is now brewed in many countries. The beer was considered very special and was usually reserved for the religious festivals, frequently having been brewed by Roman Catholic Monks. The name bock evolved from a perversion of the name Einbeck, a well-known German town, and morphed into ein bock. The wide use of the Billy Goat as a symbol for bock beer has the same derivations since ein is the German word for “a” and Bock in German means goat. Of course, the reputation of the goat as a randy, playful, fun-loving animal helped establish the icon. ORIGINAL MEDIA: Calvert Lithographing Co., Detroit, Michigan, produced the original chromolithograph that served as the basis for this new print.
