Personalized Stainless Steel Polished Classic Tankard Mug
The Personalized Stainless Steel Polished Classic Tankard Mug brings a little old-world charm into everyday life. It is a classic 20 ounce tankard in stainless steel, 4.5 inches tall and 4 inches across, with the weight and the handle you expect from the real thing rather than the thin, apologetic version. The polished, non-tarnish finish catches the light beautifully, so it looks like something that belongs on a shelf, right up until the moment somebody picks it up and uses it. That is when each sip feels a little more memorable.
What sets it apart is the personal touch. Add a custom engraving and you have got more than just a mug, you have got a keepsake. The wording is cut into the steel in-house by HansonEllis, who have been personalizing gifts since 1999, so it never peels, fades or washes away the way a printed design eventually does. Ten years from now the name will read exactly as it does on the day it is handed over.
It is the kind of gift that works for just about anyone. A groom raising a toast before the ceremony. A teacher celebrating years of dedication, handed something better than another card. A bride on her special day. A co-worker who deserves a thoughtful surprise and would rather have one good object than a gift basket. Order a matching set for the groomsmen with each man's name on his own tankard and the morning of the wedding gets its own small ceremony.
Whether it is beer, cider, soda, or a splash of rum, the Personalized Stainless Steel Polished Classic Tankard Mug turns an ordinary drink into a small celebration. Strong, shiny and personal, it is a cup made to be used, remembered and enjoyed, and it holds a generous 20 ounces, which is the difference between one pour and two.
Add your engraving text above, choose your quantity, and raise the first one properly.

Which one should I choose
Drinkware gifts split into the ones that get used every week and the ones that sit in a cupboard being careful.
| Personalized Stainless Steel Polished Classic Tankard Mug | Choose it when the gift should survive being used: 20 oz of stainless steel with a name cut permanently into it. |
|---|---|
| The same tankard with no engraving | Choose that only when you need plain drinkware for a bar; with no name on it, nobody remembers who gave it. |
| A glass beer mug | Choose that when you want to see the color of the pour, and accept that glass chips and breaks where steel does not. |
For groomsmen, retirements and milestone birthdays, the engraved stainless steel tankard is the one still in use long after the occasion.
