Ginger Beer two-tone Civil War bottle

$55.00

Product Description

This is another nice piece being offered, it is a Civil War era Ginger beer bottle. This two-tone glazed bottle measures 8 1/4” high with a diameter of 3”. Ginger beer is a type of alcoholic beverage, flavored primarily with ginger, lemon, and sugar. It originated in England in the mid-1700s, and it reached its peak of popularity in the early 1900s. Depending on the processing, the alcohol content can be as high as 11%.

This bottle is in very nice condition, no chips, or cracks. I have ginger beer bottles pictured in my book, "The Civil War Soldier - His Personal Items” and go into more detail about the drinking habits of Civil War soldiers (see pictures). It would make a nice addition to a display of a soldier’s personal effects.
